One way:
=--SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"st",""),"nd", ""),"th","")
Format as a date.
In-place:
Do three Edit/Replaces (i.e., replace st, nd and th with nothing).

I have a rather large spreadsheet where someone has input the date as text
eg. 12th January 2004, and 2nd April 2001.
Is there a simple way that I can get this into a numerical format ie
12/01/2004 so can easily use it to calculate time periods along with other
date I have?
Thanks!
