    <p>I'm importing a csv file into a datatable using this code:</p> <pre><code>Dim connstr As String connstr = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" &amp; varFilePath &amp; ";Extended Properties=Text;" Dim conn As New OleDbConnection conn = New OleDbConnection(connstr) Try conn.Open() Dim strsql As String strsql = "SELECT * FROM [" &amp; varFileName &amp; "]" Dim da As New OleDbDataAdapter() da = New OleDbDataAdapter(strsql, conn) 'dt con informacion de archivo Dim dtInfo As New DataTable da.Fill(dtInfo) da.Dispose() ... </code></pre> <p>But there is a column in the CSV file that has some values that starts with zeros '000561' for example. When the datatable is filled it just stores '561'.</p> <p>Do you know how can i set the datatype o the column to recognize the values as char and not as integers?</p> <p>Thanks very much for your time and help. Regards.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
