I am copying a table from MS Word 2007 to Excel. Some of the cells contain text such as 4:10. When I paste it in Excel it is automatically formatted as a time (04:10 AM).

How do I stop Excel from automatically formatting when I paste? I have tried pre-formatting the cells as "text" but it does not help.
