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 help me!!!!

Hi Brandon,

You may want to also post this in the MS Office Excel discussion group using the link below and give an example of what you're
seeing and what you're trying to accomplish involving the formatting and the Comma Separated Value file.
