Using excel 2000
recieving data from client with 16 numeral characters within cells
cells show an abreviated listing for the number (2.06E+15)
When editing the the number (wanting to change the last number by 1 digit)
i.e.
2059510000000000 - change to - 2059510000000001
this change will not be kept??

I format the cell to "numbers" with no decimal point as a whole number is
required

Any ideas??
Is this number to long for excell 2000??

I'm not a big excel user

Cheers
