You will need to format as text before you import the values, as Excel will
not deal with more than 15 significant digits in number formats. -- David Biddulph "Carlos Cardona" <Carlos wrote in message ...

large number in cell
Still doesn't work. I do right clic on my xml file and open it with excel, appears a little window with 3 options, i pick the number 3 ( Use Source XML task panel -I translated it from spanish- ). Exclel creates a schema. I asign fields to columns, then change all cells format to text, then import the data from my xml file but doesn't work... i get the exponential number... when i edit the cell it changes to the large number but the last digits are zeros. The only place i see my complete number is the task panel... when i change the option to see an example of data in front of each field.
