Default How to change date from US to UK format


Hi all,

I have a large-ish spreadsheet (4000 entries) with a date of birth
column. For some reason when this file was ported from SPSS into Excel,
before being sent to me, the dates of birth got a bit screwed up.
ABout a third of them are in the format I want. UK format with
day-month-year. The rest are in US format with the month first. At the
moment I'm having to just go through them and type or copy hem into a
new column. Its essential I have the whole column in UK format.
Is there any formulas that can do this for me to save me typing it all
out?!! Any help would be MUCH appreciated!!!
