I have an enormous spreadsheet with many dates. I need to insert the sheet
into another workbook. When I copy it, however, all of the dates get funked up in the destination workbook: "3/6/07," for example, morphs horribly into "3/5/03". I've checked the serial numbers for the same dates in the original workbook and the new workbook, and they're the same: as an unformatted number, 3/5/03 shows itself to be 37685, which is the serial number for the date in the source workbook before the grotesque metamorphosis.(3/6/07). Needless to say, this is all aboslutely awful. I suspect the destination workbook is simply corrupt, because when I copy sample dates from the original source workbook into a fresh one, they appear just fine. Still, I need to know, is there anything that might be done to rescue the possibly-corrupt workbook? Much workj has gone into it that simply copying all sheets into a new workbook makes impractical. Please, please help! |
