Excel spreadsheet data entry

Hello, 

I have had to re-type multiple spreadsheets in Excel due to when opening the spreadsheets I need they appear corrupt, jumbled, data is scattered. I'm trying to avoid re-typing as I've been forced to do. All the solutions I'm finding are very, very tedious. Any suggestions are helpful. 

 

I've tried converting it, copy/pasting different ways, formatting different ways. No luck. Even copy/pasting from PDF which I also have of the data & it pastes very incorrectly & unreadable. HELP!? Thank you!

    I think it depends on the nature of the corruption. Chances are though if the things you have tried dont work then your only option is to keep doing it manually.

     

    I guess it going forward it would be good to keep a back up?
