Default Help: How do I convert a text date into a real date format

Hi Guys,

Does anyone know how to convert a date that's inputted in a text
format?

Example: The date is entered as 62606, this means as 6/26/06. I just
can't change the format into date because it will be different.

I'm thinking if there is some sort of formula to add a hyphen and turn
it to 6-26-06. Like extracting, the last two digit, then the two
middle, then the first

Hope someone can help me. Thanks in advance.
