IF you mean that you have 15 0's and then a 1, it would be because excel
only uses 15. -- Don Guillett SalesAid Software "toolb" wrote in message ... last number of 16 is 1 but automatically changed to zero. why |
Since XL only calculates to 15 digits, you can use longer data, such as
credit card numbers, by either *pre-formatting* the cell(s) as TEXT, or precede the data with an apostrophe [ ' ], which will not be visible in the cell, but can be seen in the formula bar. -- HTH, RD --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please keep all correspondence within the NewsGroup, so all may benefit ! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------" toolb" wrote in message ... last number of 16 is 1 but automatically changed to zero. why |
