Hello,
OpenText seems to always drop trailing zeros off of decimal numbers when
opening a text file.

My text file has decimal numbers that represent two dimensional sequetial
numbering, so 1.1 thru 1.10 will result in (2) 1.1's and no 1.10's
Is there a way to preserve the number in text format when using OpenText?

Thanks,

You have to import the fields in question as text. The data type argument
in the FieldInfo for each such field must be a 2, e.g. Array(1, 2), as you
can see by looking at help for the OpenText method.
