This works well, but curios, can this be done without looping? Such as with Evaluate?

Code:
[FONT="Arial"][COLOR=#000000]SubAddPeriod()[/COLOR][/FONT]
[FONT="Arial"][COLOR=#000000]    Dim c As Range[/COLOR][/FONT]
[FONT="Arial"][COLOR=#000000]    For Each c In Range("C8",Range("C" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))[/COLOR][/FONT]
[FONT="Arial"][COLOR=#000000]        If PeriodExists(c) <> True Then[/COLOR][/FONT]
[FONT="Arial"][COLOR=#000000]            If Len(c) > 0 And Right(c, 1)<> "." Then c = c & "."[/COLOR][/FONT]
[FONT="Arial"][COLOR=#000000]        End If[/COLOR][/FONT]
[FONT="Arial"][COLOR=#000000]    Next c[/COLOR][/FONT]
[FONT="Arial"][COLOR=#000000]EndSub[/COLOR][/FONT]

Code:
[FONT="Arial"][COLOR=#000000]FunctionPeriodExists(ByVal Rng As Range) As Boolean[/COLOR][/FONT]
[FONT="Arial"][COLOR=#000000]    If InStr(Rng.Value, ".") Then[/COLOR][/FONT]
[FONT="Arial"][COLOR=#000000]        PeriodExists = True[/COLOR][/FONT]
[FONT="Arial"][COLOR=#000000]    End If[/COLOR][/FONT]
[FONT="Arial"][COLOR=#000000]EndFunction[/COLOR][/FONT]

Excel Facts

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
How about
Code:
Sub FryGirl()
    With Range("C8", Range("C" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
       .Value = Evaluate(Replace("if(len(@)=0,"""",if(right(@)=""."",@,@&"".""))", "@", .Address))
      End With
End Sub
