Importing large numbers as text
I'm trying to import a text file containing an invoice # field into a table.
This Inv# field needs to be formatted as text, because some of the invoice #s contain letters & numbers. However, others are numbers only and a few are very large numbers, like: 2698356000000 The problem is that it is being imported as: 2.69836E+12 How can I get these large numbers to be imported as text, but as is?? THANKS!!!! -- GD
