Check the columns width, it sounds like the column is too narrow to display
the text.

Oh, and I have another date column right next to this one, and it has no
problem showing the dates correctly.

I have a simple spreadsheet that I've been building on for the past couple
months, and I have a column with dates in it. It's formatted to do the date
as 14-Aug (so that I can enter "8/14" and it changes it for me), but over the
past few days, it's decided to display ##### instead of 14-Aug. When you
double click the darn thing, it shows the date as 8/14/2006 like it always
has, but everything I've tried won't make the pound signs go away when I'm
just viewing the document. Any ideas?

By the way, the document has 238 rows and counting, but I don't think the
length should effect it....
