Default Convert numeric field from type 1 to type 2

I do appreciate this VLOOKUP tip as I will have the use for it.
However I would like to fix the data type in my initial Import step
with VBA in order to have all data type for that field as type 2.
But I read in another post from Tom Ogilvy : "In general, you can't
force a change in type in VBA the way you can in Excel..."
I could accept that if the conversion was applied within the Cell
within the same Sheet,
but I am reading data in workbook A, converting and writing it in
workbook B. What is the work around solution ?
Thank you for your help,
J.P.
