excel truncating leading zeros
Hi,
I am trying to use the import from text file into an excel sheet. I read many queries and figured out how to import the values as text without dropping the leading zeros. Please suggest a way where i can import all the values as "text" type. I want to avoid creating an array as the size of my text file varies from time to time. So i will not be sure how big the array must be. Please suggest. Thanks . regards, veena. |
