Date Problem

I have exported some data from an accounts package. When I export to a CSV
file I get the date in the correct format which is 20081130, when I export to
Excel however, whilst this is displayed correctly, when I click on the cell
it is shown as 30/11/2008.

Can anyone tell me how to display as text or a number. I have tried the
basics (format text/number etc.)

Thanks,

Nick
