I'm having a problem exporting my table as text and having three fields reporting only 2 decimal places instead of the 4 that i need.

I'm using Access 200 on Windows XP Pro.

I searched the forums and the only thing i could find was to create a querry and using ColumnName: str([dblNumber]) somehow. I don't really unerstand what they were trying to do except that somehow this converts the number to a string. This would work I guess, but I couldn't get it to work.

I have also read somehting about changing the fields in the MSysIMEXColumns table somehow to allow more decimal places in the exprted text file.

Thanks for helping.

Look up the format function in help, it's output is a string and you ocan specify decimal places
