Default Imported data changes to date format (5-1-5 changes to May 1, 2005

I am importing data from another program into Excel. One of the fields being
imported is in the format #-#-# and when it gets to Excel it formats it as
Month day year (Ex. 5-1-5 is imported as May 1, 2005). How can I get it to
import into Excel as 5-1-5?
