So, is the data in a mixture of formats?

Would you like to send the file to me so I can have a look at it?

Change the obvious.

I only need the date/time data.

If the originating data is in the M/D/Y format what you said will
work, but if it's in the D/M/Y format it displays "Jan 1, 00 *1pm" etc

In the examples you quoted earlier you had day-month-year format, but
now you are showing month-day-year - you need to select the
appropriate format in stage 3 of the Text-to-columns wizard.

Okay, try this:

Ensure that you have 2 blank columns next to the column with dates,
inserting new columns if necessary. Then highlight the column with
your dates in, click on Data | Text-to-columns and in the Wizard click
on Delimited in the first panel, then Next, then click on Space and
Next, and in the final panel click Date with DMY, amend the
Destination to $B$1 (if your dates are in column A), then click
Finish.

You should end up with just dates in column B and the times in column
C.

Hope this helps.
