Hi folks,
I have to convert a long table from Word to an Excel one.
The first column of the WORD table is a hierarchical outline, like

1.
1.1
1.1.1
1.1.2
2.
.....


When copying the whole table and pasting it in Excel, Excel converts
some outlines to dates:

1.
1. Jan
1. Jan 01
....

How can I prevent that?
