Has anyone created a slick formula to convert a date in CYYMMDD to MMDDYY
in
an Excel spreadsheet? I have created a number of spreadsheets that use ODBC
to connect to legacy files. These applications use the old date (7,0)
format
and are not date fields. However, I need to manipulate the information in
Excel like a date. So, if you have a formula or macro that will flip the
date, I would be most appreciative.

Thanks in advance,

Patrick Shrader
