I have a range of cells in excel that were exported from another software and
the data came out looking like the above example with dates in the format of
numbers...ex from above 20070320 as a number in the cell and I need to know
the easiest way to convert this to the date 3/20/2007 for the whole range.

Thanks in advance.

select the cells, use Data/Text to Columns/ in step 3 of the wizard, you can
indicate it's a date, and then specify ymd format; then click finish.
