Hello,



I receive a report that has the date displayed as just numbers. Example: 20120131

How can I change the data to read: 01/31/2012

Thanks!

suppose the number 20120131 is in E12 use this formula
change the cell address according to you

=DATE(LEFT(E12,4),MID(E12,5,2),RIGHT(E12,2))
Thank you!
