Unwanted formatting with imported data
 
Hi all,

I import data from Access 02/03 into an existing, formatted Excel 07
spreadsheet. Unwanted cell formatting (colours), and dropdown headings
import with it.

Because I will need to import on a daily basis, I would like to prevent this
formatting from importing with the data. I will never need the formatting.

Is there a way to do this?

Any help appreciated.

Connie

Unwanted formatting with imported data
 
How are you doing the import?

If you are just copying and pasting data, you can simply use Copy and Paste
Special-Values.

There are several other means to import data, if you provide some more
detail someone may have the answer.
