Default Excel fraction not a date

Windows 2000, Excel 2003
How do you get excel to use a fraction as a fraction and not a date? I am
using a function that returns a fraction as a string. I then copy it and
paste it in a new cell as value.. I have tried formating the cell as a
decimal, as a fraction, it just keeps it as text or views it as a date....
any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
