Excel only keeps track of 16 digits.

So you can either preformat the cell as text or enter your data as text (start
with an apostrophe): '1234567890123456.

In both of these cases, these "numbers" will be treated as text.

When I type in 16 or more numbers in a cell it always turns the last one
to a 0 and even when I pick the format number it still changes the last
number into a o. How can I make excell leave the digital number I type
in?
