I have an Excel working document where I store all of my vital data, such as
logon name, passwords, credit card and bank account numbers, etc, etc.

Unfortunaly I have ran into a problem that I cannot solve.

My personal Visa credit card number (last digit) ends in the numeric number
9. Everytime I enter the full credit card number into my Excel Date storage
document it changes the number to "ZERO" when I navigate away from the cell.
I have tried every format that I can think of but cannnot solve this problem.

Help PLEASE!!!!!

Thanks for the suggestion, but I currently use RoboForm and like it very well.

However this Excel document is something I have built for years and years
and even though most of the data in now in RoboForm, I still keep it up to
date.

I might add this problem did not occur unitl I started using Office Pro 2007
(Beta).

But seriously, Excel is not secure, and if you have stuff like credit card
and bank account details you should use something else. KeePass encrypts it
all. Is Roboform similar to KeePass?

BTW, to answer your initial question, format the cc cell as text, or precede
with ' (a single apostrophe).

Bob ---- Thanks for both of your responses. I'm not familiar with KeePass,
but will investigate it and see what the differences are between it and
RoboForm.

I have used and do use the ' apostrophe solution, but was hoping their was
another way to format the cell so I could store longer numbers.

I hate to say this, but I do know that Excel is not necessiarly secure, but
I have done everything humanly possible to protect the file and my computer.
I'm what you would call a "SECURITY FREAK". Having said that I do realize
that the best of the those folks our their who want to hurt you and get data
from you have many deviious ways to do so!!!!!!

I took a look at RoboForm, and the biggest difference is that KeePass is
free. It seems that RoboForm has some extra functions for using tyhat data
also.

I don't think, just seems a limitation of Excel's arithmetic engine.

Unfortunately with Excel you don't have to be the best or even devious, it
is EASY.
