convert date to different format
When you say you have "dates in the format YYYYMMDD", do you mean you have *real* date values in cells that have been Cell Formatted to look like "YYYYMMDD", or do you mean you have "YYYYMMDD" looking text strings (that is, not *real* dates)? If you have *real* dates, then just use cell formatting to make them look like you want. If they are just text strings, then try this formula...
=TEXT(--TEXT(A1,"0000-00-00"),"mmddyyyy")
