| Jul 21, 2011 at 20:06 | comment | added | Stu Pegg | Could we see some sample data? Some examples of field values that get consistently categorised as different types? | |
| Jul 6, 2011 at 17:39 | comment | added | Eric Alexander | I can honestly say, I've never used this feature. I always create a new content type or a custom list and copy the data from Excel into the datasheet view. Strange behavior. | |
| Jul 6, 2011 at 11:50 | comment | added | Ryan | Nope - both set to Text, no formatting. In fact I've done "Paste Values" into a blank sheet to ensure all formatting stripped out. | |
| Jul 6, 2011 at 11:49 | comment | added | Stu Pegg | Is there a cell format difference on the Excel side? e.g. one set is General, and the other Text? | |
