Default Date function/Text issue

Wonder if anyone can help.
In column A there is a date and time function in the format as follows :
dd/mm/yy hh:mm:ss most of the time.
When this is downloaded it is easy to manuplite. But some times it show as
above but as a text string or sometimes the dd/mm is switched to mm/dd.
Does anyone know the work rounds these formulas?

I use the dd/mm and Hr function to complie reports from column A but usually
spend hours using mid() left() function due to the date change.
I have tried formating the cell but this does not work?

Help
