It's unclear for me what exactly you're trying to do from your question.
If you export data from grid to somewhere you can use String.Format method to format cell value. http://msdn.microsoft.com/ru-ru/library/system.string.format.aspx

If it doesn't help you please improve your question with more information.

Do you mean you want to format existing data to an excel format PRIOR to exporting?

If so just format to any date format that suits you, as excel will pick up the format automatically.

Or, do you mean you want to alter the format After is has been sent to excel?
If so then a simple macro will do the trick in changing it.

Your question is not clear, give more details of the requirement for a more succinct answer.
