Default Conditional Formatting not applied to data exported from Access

Hi

I have an MS Access report that I copy+paste into an excel worksheet. Other
cells in the worksheet contain conditional formatting which lookup the cells
with the access data (date: dd/mm/yyyy) and compares against a date in two
other cells and shades the cell appropriately.

The problem is not the formula - it works fine - but that the conditional
formtting does not work on the data exported from Access but only works if I
manually type in a date. However, I cannot see ANY difference between an
manually tpyed in date and the Access exported date.

Help please!
