Hi
I'm trying to import two excel spreadsheets into Access 2000. All fields, in excel, are set to text, yet when I import them in access this one field appears as double. What's even more confusing is that of the two files, A and B, this only happens for one of them
The field ID appears in both spreadsheets and has been set to format text
When importing the two spreadsheets into access, A.ID is imported as a double while B.ID remains as text. As a result I am getting a mismatch when trying to compare the two fields. Also, I am unable to change the data type during import as this option isn't available
Would be very grateful for any help
