I searched the site but did not find an aswer to my question. I am copying data from a web site that look like this:
27-40
25-40
8-57
12-53
I want the data to remain as it is shown above but when I paste into Excel, I get the following:
27-40
25-40
Aug-57
Dec-53
It appears if the text does not look like a valid date excel leaves it alone. But if it looks like a possible date, it formats it into a date format. How do I paste this data and prevent Excel from converting it into a date format?
Thanks, Jim
