Hey,

Try:
=TEXT((MONTH("1/"&LEFT(A1,3))&"/"&TRIM(MID(A1,7,5)))+0,"mm/yyyy")

Try this

With the following formula you get the date, just change the cell format to mm/yyyy

<table border="1" cellspacing="0" style="font-family:Calibri,Arial; font-size:11pt; background-color:#ffffff; "> <colgroup><col style="font-weight:bold; width:30px; " /><col style="width:141.62px;" /><col style="width:122.61px;" /></colgroup><tr style="background-color:#cacaca; text-align:center; font-weight:bold; font-size:8pt; "><td > </td><td >A</td><td >B</td></tr><tr style="height:19px ;" ><td style="font-size:8pt; background-color:#cacaca; text-align:center; " >1</td><td > </td><td > </td></tr><tr style="height:19px ;" ><td style="font-size:8pt; background-color:#cacaca; text-align:center; " >2</td><td style="text-align:right; ">Mar 1 2008 12:00AM</td><td style="text-align:right; ">03/2008</td></tr><tr style="height:19px ;" ><td style="font-size:8pt; background-color:#cacaca; text-align:center; " >3</td><td style="text-align:right; ">abr 16 2019 15:00PM</td><td style="text-align:right; ">04/2019</td></tr></table><br /><table style="font-family:Arial; font-size:10pt; border-style: groove ;border-color:#00ff00;background-color:#fffcf9; color:#000000; "><tr><td ><b></b></td></tr><tr><td ><table border = "1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2" style="font-family:Arial; font-size:9pt;"><tr style="background-color:#cacaca; font-size:10pt;"><td >Cel</td><td >Formula</td></tr><tr><td >B2</td><td >=(LEFT(A2,3)&MID(A2,FIND(" ",A2,5)+1,4))+0</td></tr></table></td></tr></table>
