assume: [date] is in the following format: yyyymmdd
create a new column named [dateFormatted] and apply the formula as follows:
- dateFormatted = Date(Left([date],4),Right(left([date],6),2),right([date],2)
select the new column and change its type to date as follows:
[dateFormatted] will now be of type date, formatted as: dd Mmm yyyy
