Change Numbers to Dates
Donnie
Manually enter this in an adjacent column and copy down by double-clicking on
the right-hand bottom corner of the cell.
=DATE(VALUE("20" & MID(A2,2,2)), VALUE(MID(A2,4,2)), VALUE(RIGHT(A2,2)))
Note: I interpreted your needs differently than Bob did so you will get
different results. You be the judge.
If need a macro......
Sub change_dates()
Selection.Formula = _
"=DATE(VALUE(""20"" & MID(A2,2,2)), VALUE(MID(A2,4,2)),
VALUE(RIGHT(A2,2)))"
End Sub
Watch for wordwrap.
Select an appropriate range in an adjacent column and run the macro to
replicate the formula down.

I routinely import files from an AS400 to excel and the dates appear as
follows:
A
1 1031102
2 1031103
A1 equals 11/02/03 & A2 equals 11/03/03.
I'm looking for some help with a macro that would convert the dates
automatically.
Thanks,
Donnie
