Hello,
I am exporting a data file from another program into a text file and then into an Exel file. The numbers are correct in the original program, but once the data gets to the .txt file or xls. file they lose any preceeding zero's or trailing zero's. Examples: Original program shows 250.70 or 02.06. After getting to .txt or .xls they are 250.7 or 2.06. I know that I can format cells in Exel to either Text or Custom and then if I manually add the missing zero's in each cell, the data stays like that. However, I want to be able to run a fix on the .txt or .xls file and have it automatically find and correct the entries that transferred incorrectly. (i.e., without the zero's) Does anyone know if there is a way of doing this, so as not to have to manually format cells and manually correct each entry? Thanks! Victoria |
