I have a workbook that I'm using as my data source for MS Query. My problem is MS Query is showing 11/4/2011 as 40851. I've tryed fromating the entire Column as Date with no success. I've also made sure the excel option 'Show formulas in cells instead of their calculated results' is unchecked. Using excel 2007.

thx,
