Default Date format error in Excel

I have a spreadsheet that has about 8000 records. It was working fine until I
started using some functions like (=trim) and (=clean). Now all my date
colums will not change from displaying the dates as numbers back to the
proper date format. The cell displays 38908 but the function field shows it
as 10/07/2006. I have formatted the cell every which way possible but it does
not change. Any suggestions?
