Assume you want the formula in D2 to the last filled value in column A

Sub change_dates()
dim rng as Range
set rng = range(cells(2,1),cells(2,1).End(xldown))
rng.offset(3,0).Formula = _
"=DATE(VALUE(""20"" & MID(A2,2,2)), " & _
"VALUE(MID(A2,4,2)), VALUE(RIGHT(A2,2)))"
End Sub

the formula is specific to converting a formula in cell A2 - when filled
down, it adjusts to refer to subsequent rows. But if you want to start in a
different row, you would need to change the formula.

Gord,

I appreciate your recommendation. I'm new to VBA, will you provide an
example to the range you are referring to?

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,
