What will happen if the Fill Handle in Excel is used to drag from a cell containing date formatting?

If there is a date in the cell, it will copied. If the cell is blank, but has date formatting, it will apply date formatting to all cells it is dragged to while also blanking out any content in those cells. If you then type a number into any of those cells, they will show as a date.
