I have been working a spreadsheet and I just noticed that in one of my
rows which has fractions in it (for example, 08/1, 11/1, 12/1) a few of
the cells have been converted into a date.

Like, 8/1 is now 8/1/2006 and in the cell it comes up as 1-Aug, 11/1 is
now 11/1/2006 and in thje cell it comes up as 1-Nov

Fractions that are higher than 12 like 14/1 and 15/1 are still the
same, I am guessing this is because we don't have a 14th or a 15th
month in a year :rolleyes:

I tried to reformat these sells to a number but that did not help. All
it did was that It solved the date i.e. 11/1/2006 turns into 30922.00

Is there any way in excel where my fractions won't turn into dates or
get solved?

thanks
