Format/Cells/Text, then fill down.

I have a date in a cell in the following format 12/15/05. However I
need to make this a true text field. I can do it manually by just
going into that cell and preceding the date with a ' (single quote) so
it would be '12/15/05 but I can't copy this down to all the other
cells. Anyone know of an easy way to do this?
