Please can somebody help me.
I need to disable date formatting in Excel 2003 & 2007.
Excel's "helpfullness" is being VERY unhepfull at the moment. It is changing
my style codes to dates, and if you format the cell to text then it applies
some useless number that means nothing to me instead of what is supposed to
be in that cell.
I need to open already created csv files - so formatting the cells beforehand
isnt an option.
Please can somebody tell me how to disable date formatting entirely in Excel.
The application dumps data to csv files. Users manipulate this data and work
with it on an ongoing basis.
What happens is this: One of the fileds that are exported is a stock code,
and excel changes this stock code to a date. The actual value in the stock
code is 3522-01 and Excel changes this to Jan-22. If you try and format the
cell to text, you get 592425 . So there is no way to change it.
