disable formatting
The VBA code would be:
Sheets(SheetName).Range(RangeName).NumberFormat="@ "
Where SheetName is the name of the worksheet and RangeName
is the name (or address) of the range including your
housenumbers - example:
Sheets("Import").Range("C:C").NumberFormat = "@"
You could set this up as a macro.

I don't import it, I export to the html/excel format that
microsoft supports
(where each cell in a table of html is viewed as a cell
in excel). It has
the extension .XLS and excel opens it just like it would
open up a normal
excel file.
Is there a place where you can point me at that has some
info on such a
routine?

Answer would depend on the exact method you are using to
import it (Text file? External data query via ODBC? VBA
routine?) However, it might just be simpler to set up a
routine to format that column as text after the import -
it will force Excel to read treat your housenumbers as
text.

Hi,
I wrote an excel/html output from a database, but when
it
gets imported, the
housenumbers that are formatted like "9/13" or "13-17"
get formatted as a
date.
Is there a way to turn this of, or to make sure this
doesn't happen?
