I would recommend importing into empty worksheet. Then copy intto format
worksheet using pastespecial using xlPasteValues. This should leavve the
format of your destination intact.

Ah, very good. Will do that.

necessary formatting, etc.

The data will be coming from a database that they'll have exported from (
not Access). I was just wondering if there was anything special I had to
do
so that it wouldn't overwrite cell formatting and dropdown boxes made via
data validation, etc.

Thanks. :oD
