excel is limited to 15 digits
the way around this is to put "'" & ( text cote) before concatenate
wsO.Cells(b, 2) = "'" & wsI.Cells(a + 1, 1) & wsI.Cells(a + 1, 2)

I tried it and did not work however.


What do you mean by "did not work"?

Give concrete examples of what does work (if any) and what does not work.

7220390 000RSM069 7220390000RSM069


I wonder if the problem is: those cells with numeric values with leading
zeros (e.g. 000011288) have the Custom format 000000000. In that case, the
following might be necessary:

wsO.Cells(b, 2) = "'" & wsI.Cells(a + 1, 1).Text & wsI.Cells(a + 1, 2).Text

There is no need to format the wsO.Cells(b, 2) as Text ("@"). But it would
not hurt to do so. In that case, you would not need ``"'" &``. But you
still might need wsI.Cells(a + 1, 1).Text, for example.
