Default 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

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.
