FORMATING OF DATE

I have a list of few hundred clients addresses and their date-of-birth and I wish to format the birthday column to reflect the year of birth to 2002 so that I can do sorting by month (use for mail merging and sending out birthday cards)

EG:
3-Mar-1946
18-May-1957
28-Sept-1967

To be formated to:
3-Mar-2002
18-May-2002
28-Sept-2002

Which formula should I use and how should the formula be keyed in.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

Excel Facts

Copy PDF to Excel
Select data in PDF. Paste to Microsoft Word. Copy from Word and paste to Excel.
If your dates are in column A:

=DATE(2002,MONTH(A1),DAY(A1))

in another column and pasted down will do the trick. Of course format this column as date
