Default * in date format


I have exported a report into Excel from a suppliers website. :)

It now includes a * infront the date format which is not displayed. I
cannot remove it, the data displays a date as normal but is seens as
text in the cell.:(

If I use the "Edit Replace" function it removes all the data and I
can't find any other way to remove it. I think the spreadsheet thinks
is a wildcard.
