I have a database where I am linking to excel spreadsheets. The columns that are numbers show up in Access as #Num! unless the number is a "Number stored as Text". Anyone know how to correct this in Access or how to convert the entire column in excel in one shot rather than having to go to each cell and convert it to text manually?

TIA,

Jeff
 
Hi Jeff

I am having exactly the same problem, did you ever resolve it?

Thanks, Klopper
