I use a program called Argus. The date format that I dump into Excel is mm/yy. Excel does not understand this as a date. I am trying to figure out how to convert mm/yy to mm/dd/yy. Any thoughts? I am currently trying to use and IF statement and Insert function to insert either a 30,31, or 28 depending on the month, but I cannot seem to get my hands around the problem. The first step of simple inserting a number is giving me trouble. Any help would be great.

thanks.:)
