Getting into a muddle here so if anybody could straighten me out it would be appreciated.

I have several columns in sheet with dates in the format 25 Jun 2014 which have been imported into Calc via a .csv file from another programme.

I have to manipulate the data and then export it as a .csv file for import by yet another program which requires the dates in the format 25/06/2014.

I have been able to create a column with the dates in required format using the formula =TEXT(B2,"DD/MM/YYYY") but this leaves the underlying formula in the cell so when I try and remove unwanted columns the formula fails. What I need is the date as written by the formula "frozen" as text so I may then manipulate the columns without messing up. Hope this is clear.

Please could somebody advise how I should proceed.
