I'm having trouble recording a macro that will insert slashes into a cell
that already has data in it.

For example, a cell contains the following data "20080723" and I want to
create a macro, using "relative references" that will insert slashes as
follows "2008/07/23." In other words, I want the macro to create the slashes
in that location in the cell regardless of what is in the cell. For example,
if the cell contains 20061103, I want the end result to be 2006/11/03.
However, when I run the macro, I still get 2008/07/03, regardless of what is
in the cell.

Can anyone help me?
