i need to import data from a web page into exceo 2007. some of the numbers
are 19 digits long and when they import excel changes them to a binary
number. i have formated the entire workbook to text and number and it still
does the same thing. am i miising a setting or somethig? when i choose paste
speical it keeps my number but it puts all the info into one cell and its
supposed to be in a chart form like it is on my web page. any help is greatly
appericated.

Can't you just format those cells as text?

But Excel may still display ONLY the first 15 digits. I'm not sure how 2007
works; still hanging on to my 2003.
