Copied nubers is not possible to add
 

I have copied a text (from a website) with numbers into exel - it looks ok in
exel, but when i want to add or do other operations with the numbers it
dosent work at all - it seeams like there are no numbers there at all even if
I can see then at themonitor. If I delete the number and retype it -
everything works as normal, but then the whole idea of using exel is wasted.
Before I changed my computer (with old exel version) the same operation was
no problem.

Can anyone help? I can mail an exampel of the excel file withe the problem.
