1. This seemed to be an Excel question, not Access

2. Please read FAQ in my sig #4 about cross-posting

1. Select A:E

2. Find-Replace (Control-h) s2018, with s2018 where the 's' is a space

3. Apply number format mm/dd/yyyy

4. Look for any that did not get caught with the Find-Replace like A3 (Oct 1,2018, 2:05 PM) which did not have a space in front of 2018
