Default Number Problem

Excel can only handle 15 digit numbers, after that everything gets shown as
0. If you want 20 digits you will have to hold it as text.

D'all,
In a column, I hav 16 digits numbers. But when I add 4 digit number after
last digit of that number becomes 4 zeros at last. e.g. 9503170011002910
(16
digit number) 1425 (4 digit number) becomes 95031700110029100000 whether
it
should be 95031700110029101425
