Excel converts automaticaly 6digit Product ID into date
An excel sheet (import from @enterprise database) contains product ID's that
come as 6 digits separated by dots. Ex: 01.04.02, 03.08.00, OP82.01, 24.20.00. Where Excel can (first two examples), it automaticaly changes the ID in a date instead of leaving it as text resp. Product ID. As soon as I try to convert it back to text, Excel presents the serial_number of the date. (ex. 01.07.00 = 36708) which has nothing to do with the serial number. How can I hinder excel to do this convertion-step? |
