Default How to turn off the automated dates in excel (when importing data)

Hi, do you know how to turn off the automated dates off when importing data?
I am importing survey results to excels (e.g. 3-5, 6-10) and my excel just
keeps on turning this data into dates (oct-6). This drives me crazy :) I have
already tried format cells in many ways.
