I've never seen the File|open Text import wizard behave that way.

Can you describe what you're doing in more detail?

I€„¢ve trying to import a fixed length text file (2408 rows) in to excel. In
two of the columns have mostly digits, but about 20% are text. The import
wizard will not allow me to change the two fields to text. It€„¢s grayed out.
Is there away around this?
