Default Macro to Find and Replace

I have recorded a macro to find and replace all the dates but when I run it
it doesn't actually change them. I want to change all the dates so that they
are all the 1st of the the month instead of specifying the day. I can't think
of an easier way of doing it so if anyone has any better ideas it'll be very
appreciated!!!

Here's the code:

Columns("U:U").Select
Selection.Replace What:="??/12/2005", Replacement:="01/12/2005",
LookAt:= _
xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False,
SearchFormat:=False, _
ReplaceFormat:=False
Selection.Replace What:="??/01/2006", Replacement:="01/01/2006",
LookAt:= _
xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False,
SearchFormat:=False, _
ReplaceFormat:=False
Selection.Replace What:="??/02/2006", Replacement:="01/02/2006",
LookAt:= _
xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False,
SearchFormat:=False, _
ReplaceFormat:=False
Selection.Replace What:="??/03/2006", Replacement:="01/03/2006",
LookAt:= _
xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False,
SearchFormat:=False, _
ReplaceFormat:=False

It doesn't come up with an error, it just doesn't do it!

Thanks in advance!!!!
