Provide an example text string and the resulting date that would be derived from it, provide one for EVERY month of the year and include several years as well. Show us all the variations. I can't really follow the logic from what is given so far.

Thank you for the reply, hope this makes it clear
1st digit determines if it was Internet lead (1) or Phone (2)
2nd digit determines year 3 = 2013 and 4 = 2014 etc
3rd digit reads first 1st digit of 2 digit month where 7 = 0 and 8 = 1
4th digit reads 2nd digit of 2 digit month – so a 7 followed by 1-9 is Jan to Sept and 8 followed by 0-2 is Oct – Dec
5th and 6th digit are the 2 digit day of the month so 01 is 1st day and 25 is the 25th day

Assuming those text strings are in A2 going down:
B2: =DATEVALUE(MID(A2,3,2)-70 & "/" & MID(A2,5,2) & "/" & CHOOSE(MID(A2,2,1)+0,,, 2013, 2014))
(format cell as Date)
C2: =CHOOSE(LEFT(A2,1)+0, "Internet Lead", "Phone Lead")
Copy B2:C2 downward.
