Thanks for replying. TAS produces .csv files. I saved the file as .csv,
closed it. On re-opening I right-clicked to rename it & it brought up the
wizard. Followed this, putting in column breaks. After doing this once,
didn't need to use it again, as each .csv file on re-opening, dates were
automatically altered to UK formats. Then just converted the file to .xls!
Thanks for your help!

Using Excel 2000. Imported data from TAS, an accounts package. The data is
imported in csv format in Excel. The dates in the dd/mm/yy format have been
recognised as UK, but the dates picked up as dd/mm/yyyy are all in USA
format, i.e. mm/dd/yyyy, despite all being entered in TAS as dd/mm/yy.
Without going through the whole column's transactions individually & changing
the USA ones, is there a way to do this with all the USA dates?
