Default data type inconsistency


Hi,
i have a rather large spreadsheet (21k records) and i appended some
new records on to the bottom from a text file. i have since formatted
the cells so that they are all dates. when i do a =weeknum calc on the
new dates, i get "#VALUE". the error message tells me that the input is
the wrong data type. if i go back to "format cells" it tells me that
my dates are indeed dates. the error creates cascading errors that
ultimately disallow summing collumns.

suggestions?
