Hi :)
I think you meant "Writer" rather than "Word"!  Also "Calc" rather than
"Excel".  However those sorts of tricks often work in all sorts of
different Office suites.  I would probably have used a text-editor rather
than W* to avoid any weird formatting creeping in but you did the same by
paste-special - "as unformattted text"

Nicely done and a good answer imo :)
Regards from
Tom :)

Hi, I got a simple solution to this. My date format in excel sheet was like
12-04-2015.

Excel was not recognizing it as date or Formatting cell to Date was helping
me.

So I selected and Copied entire column of date to New Blank Word document.

  Then I Again copied the date column from word document and came back to
my
original excel sheet.

Then right click and press Pest Special -->Paste as TEXT.

Done. Now Excel will recognize it as date and will allow you to format
cells
any date format as you wish.
