I have a spreadsheet with hundreds of line with data in the following
formats, eg 1232008, 122008, 12342008.
I would like them all to be formatted like 0123/2008, 0012/2008, 1234/2008
or - instead of /, is their any easy way of doing this?

Thanks
 
You might try this:

1. Highlight the cell(s), column(s) or row(s) that contain your data,
2. Right click the selection & Left click "Format Cells" from the pop-up
3. Left click the "Number" tab
4. Left click "Custom"
5. Type 0000"/"0000 in the window below "Type:"

Hope this helps =)
