I have a column of dates as YYYY-MM-DD and I need to change it to MMDDYYYY. What is the easiest way to do this? Thanks!!!
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
If your column has Excel dates, just change the formatting to MMDDYYYY.

If your column has text values, try:

=TEXT(DATEVALUE(A1),"mmddyyyy"), fill down, and paste values over the originals.
