How do I turn off the automatic conversion to dates?
I have often copied tabells to Excel which contained spanned values like
"4-8" and such and I have found no way to stop Excel from turning it inot a date and no way of converting it back without it just returning the value of the date. Not even preconfigure the page to text work for me. For that I want to turn off the function of converting to dates all to gether since i rarely or ever use it but frequently use spanned values and don't like having to write a citation mark before and after or preformat the cell. Hoping for a quick answer... |
