Hi, I've got a Word file with a table containing the following data:

Date : 12/3/2007

Using copy and Paste Special, Paste Link, I can get the Excel cell to read 12/3/2007.

Fine and dandy!! Save everything OK.

Change date in Word file to 12/3/2008, save, close.

Open Excel file, update links, and I get.....

12/3/200

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Gavin.
