Default Cell Edit

Hello All,

I have a program that exports files into Excel format.
The problem is that the date is formatted as a number, I
cannot change the format through "Format Cells". The
only way to get Excel to recognize this as a date is to
edit (F2) each cell or click in the formula bar and hit
enter.

Any help with this would be appreciated as I sometimes
have thousands of rows with dates.

Thanks in advance.
