G Gord Dibben Dec 12, 2009 #2 New workbooks don't have values. Do you mean open a *.txt file in Excel and have values treated as Text. Open the *.txt file and the Text Import Wizard will pop up. In Step 3 select all columns(Shift + click).......Column Data Format>Text. Finish. Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP
