Sounds to me like your file is too big. Try splitting it into two roughly
equally sized files and I bet your problem disappears.

It's most peculiar - until today for months the files were being saved as
Excel 2003 and all formatting was being maintained fine. Then suddenly for no
apparent reason, saving as normal (Ctrl-S) and the formatting has
disappeared. Tried reformatting and the formatting will not stay, the files
will not maintain any type of formats .....

Check to make sure you're saving it as an excel file and not a text document
or comma delimited document.
