    Importing Decimals to Access

    Currently, I am trying to import numbers such as 97.8 and 97.43 and 98 from Excel.


    However, when imported to access the number values change to 978.00, 9743.00 and 98 respectively.

    How do I fix this issue?

    Thanks,

    afa

    What is the data type of the destination field? It can't be Integer or long Integer. I'd use Currency.
