Hi Everyone,
I am importing information from a text file to excel and creating columns for each field of data. My problem is that some of the numbers are being converted into a dates because there are hyphens inbetween the numbers. When I format the cell and put it back to a number or general format, it removes the hypens. This is a problem because I need to do vlookups on the data and the hyphens need to be in there. The most simple solution I can think of is to turn off the date auto format before I import the file to excel but I can't find the option anywhere. Is it even possible to turn it off?
Thanks in advance.
