I imported a faxed spreadsheet into OmniPage and directed it to output
the data into an Excel spreadsheet.

It did a good job, except that the dates in the date column were all
changed into early twentieth century dates.

Instead of adding 100 years to each date one-by-one, can I add 100 years
to the entire column with one command?

In a staging column, enter formula:
=DATE'YEAR(A1)+100,MONTH(A1),DAY(A1))
drag down.
When finished, Copy that column and Paste Special Values over original
column.

Typo:
=DATE(YEAR(A1)+100,MONTH(A1),DAY(A1))
