Re: Backend bod: "Either way is fine"
Excel goes out of its way to try and interpret anything as a date.
"11/12","High Street" becomes "11-Dec","High Street"
And if that wasn't bad enough, it will try and translate strings into numbers
"12E2" because "1200"
"01709" becomes "1709"
"123456789012345" becomes "12345678901E4"
"-" becomes "-0" !!!!
