    I read this as a formatting question - could you please confirm?

    This worked for me...

    Select the range of dates
    Goto the Data tab>Text to Columns
    Click Next twice
    In Step 3 of the userform, under Column data format, select Date
    In the drop down list select YMD
    Click Finish
