Please can anyone help me.
I Microsoft Office XP
I had a very long list (about two thousand entries).
Each entry had a date in column B
Before I reformatted my PC I saved the document.
When I put it back on my PC after the format all the dates in column B
have changed to #######.
If I point the mouse curser over each entry it shows the original date
Can anyone PLEASE tell me is there a way to get thses dates back

Try increasing the column width (for example, Format/ Column/ Autofit
selection).
