I am linking a Excel sheet into a Access 2000 db. Some data values display '#Num!' value when viewing the linked data within Access. If I view the spreadsheet within Excel, the data seems fine.

The fields in question are numeric, but when I go through the Access linking wizzard I change their type to Double. I have also formatted the cells as numeric within Excel.

Any advice greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Moben.
