I have a spreadsheet that contains a date in the format of yyyymmdd and I can
not get it to convert to a different date format
 
Is it one column?

Select that column
data|text to columns
fixed width, but remove all those lines that excel guesses and don't draw any
yourself.

Choose ymd as the format for the field.

And finish up.

If you have more than one column, do each separately.
