Default Help converting text to date & time?

Edit/ Find and Replace/ change @ to a space
or
=--SUBSTITUTE(A1,"@"," ") and format appropriately,
but in either case don't forget to tell your system (in Windows Regional
Settings under Control Panel) whether you are working in dd/mm/yy or
mm/dd/yy, as 12/01/08 is ambiguous.
