Perhaps try pre-formatting the cell(s) / col as Text before copy pasting
(via: Format Cells Number tab Text OK)

When you type in 5/2, I know Excell will automatically convert it to
02-May.
I know I can change the formatting of the cell, up to even using a mask.
How
do I get content I paste (i.e. from a site displaying data in a grid
format),
to NOT convert fractions to dates? Changing the content of the data from
a
website is not an option.
