Default convert american dates from a query

Hi,

I checked past post about date conversions but couldn't find any that
fix my problem:

- I am doing a query that returns dates (text strings) in the format 1
Dec 2005, and I need to convert them to the user short date format.

Problem is that the xl of those users does not understand "Dec". As
there are "built in" functions that only works in the American format I
was expecting this was going to be an easy one... but so far no
success. Ideas

Mika
