I am working on a spreadsheet that the dates are inputted as 1/5/08 and
display as Jan-08. I am wondering how do I change all the dates that say
1/5/08 to how they are actually displayed? I need them for a Pivot table, as
of right now when i do a pivot table it comes up with like 5 Jan-08's and 10
different Feb-08's, when I want them to be one of each.

Unless I am missing something here, Right-click Format Dat then choose
the first date-type at the top of the list.
