Default Use of 'Text to Columns' within VBA

As a result of a problem that I've got analysing data within a pivot-
table I need to remove the time stamp on the end of data that I've
imported from a flat file (csv).

Column B contains data as per below example (Title row 1 containing
Created Date):
Created Date
02/01/2007 08:10
02/01/2007 13:58
02/03/2007 10:58
02/03/2007 11:11
02/01/2007 08:41
06/03/2007 13:46
18/01/2007 15:35

I've managed to record the functionality to do what I want, however
when I try and use this back it causes dates to reverse (e.g. my
previous August dates later on in the data have instead of being
03/08/2007 have become 08/03/2007 - american format). I've tried
ensuring the format of this data was correct pre-macro and then
afterwards but to no avail.

Please can someone help. Below is the recorded code:

Range("B2").Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
Selection.texttocolumns Destination:=Range("B2"),
DataType:=xlFixedWidth, _
FieldInfo:=Array(Array(0, 4), Array(10, 9))

Regards, Al.
