    convert date text to date value

    Any suggestions on converting the example dates in the attached workbook to Excel dates?

    I suspect the solution requires some utilization of SUBSTITUTE, REPLACE, and DATEVALUE, perhaps along with CONCAT and LEN, but my brain is fried and I can't manage to get a decent formula which works in all of the examples.

    Thanks!

    Since you are in a US locale, you can use this formula (just make sure to apply the cell formatting for how you want the date displayed)...

    =0+REPLACE(A2,LEN(A2)-6,2,",")
