Excel makes some crazy assumptions with dates but....it doesn't get confused about decimals. I just tried 12.5, 1900.12.5, and 5.12.1900 but none converted to dates

The worst culprit for me are the alphanumerical employee codes like "MARC4"

Is that the code for the employee who rats out your stash?

Yeahhhh I've had similar things happen with device SKUs! It gets confused with letters a lot

As someone from Spain, excel decimals are the bane of my fucking existence
