  • I would nest LEFT and RIGHT:

    =DATE(B1,RIGHT(LEFT(A1,4),2),LEFT(A1,2))
    

    Or use the text-to-columns, but there's probably another reason why you don't want that.

  • does this do anything that mid doesn't? e.g.

    =date(b1,left(a1,2),mid(a1,3,2))
    

    Edit: that answers my question. I think you've got the date and month the wrong way round (although the original example isn't that clear looking at it which is probably the issue).

    @Pifko it is =Date(year,month,day)
