Default Imported negative values

Using 2003
I have imported data with numeric negative values. I have formated the

column to numeric data. However, the value does not evaluate to
negative - ie - A5 = -10. When I select another cell and enter = A5<0
It should evaluate to TRUE however it evaluates to FALSE. If I
manually reenter the data as -10, it evaluates to TRUE.

I don't want to manually reenter all the data. How can I get Excel to
"see" this as a proper negative number?
