There are two approaches that may help:

1. Use the Import Wizard:
Data > Inport External Data > Import Data...
and tell the Wizard that the field is a Date

2. Use a small macro to "click-activate" all the cells at once. Select the
cells and run:

Sub wake_up()
Set saveit = Selection
For Each r In saveit
r.Select
Application.SendKeys "{F2}"
Application.SendKeys "{ENTER}"
DoEvents
Next
End Sub
