I have a file that comes in as .csv (and now .xls) with a job number field. We have changed the program so we wrap the job number in double quotes ("jobnumber"). We did this to try a stop excel from converting some of these numbers (8 digits in length) to Scientific Notation. However, it did not work. We can clearly see the double quotes before we import the file - and excel still converts some of them. The only way I've gotten this to work is to change the .csv to .xls and then that forces the text import wizard to pop - then I'm able to make to force that field to text. My question is this (finally) - Why didn't wrapping the job number in double quotes work? Thank you. Marie
