My dates seem to be storing as text when being written

from a user form... Is there any way to convert these
programmatically??? If I manually convert text to columns
and select date.. it shows correctly and will sort
properly.. VBA doesn't seem to be carrying the formatting
style back from the user form even though it is specified
as format(..., ""MMM-DD-YY") because when it sorts.. it
as though it is text not a date... How can I get it back
to date format???? The user will not know how to do this
so.. I need to somehow do it in a macro or in vba. The
data is dynamic.
