Select "Text to Columns" -- just to the right of center, in the Data Tools section. That brings up the Convert Text to Columns wizard; Step 1 of 3 <Next -- Step 2 of 3 be sure it is not splitting the column <Next -- Step 3 of 3 be sure your column is selected. Column Data Format select Date and then, from the drop-down, YMD <Finish --ron |
