If the data is in a single column, you could select that column and use
data|text to columns (in xl2003 menus)

Fixed witdth, but don't draw any lines
and then choose date (ymd) as the field as the column format

And then format the range the way you like.

=DATE(right(A1,2),mid(a1,5,2),left(A1,4))

but it does not work.

Thanks
