    <p>I have follwing C# code which opens that tab delimited .txt file and does the saveas to Excel file. Problem what I am running into is some of the text field has value such as "9101010521297461515213" is getting converted to "9.10101E+21". How do I prevent getting converted to scientific notation and leave as text instead using below function ?</p> <pre><code>public void SaveTextFileAsExcel(string filefrompath, string filetopath, string newtabname) { // Excel object references. Excel.Application m_objExcel = new Excel.Application(); Excel.Workbooks m_objBooks = (Excel.Workbooks)m_objExcel.Workbooks; Excel._Workbook m_objBook = null; Excel.Sheets m_objSheets = null; Excel._Worksheet m_objSheet = null; // Frequenty-used variable for optional arguments. object m_objOpt = System.Reflection.Missing.Value; if (filefrompath != "") { m_objBooks.OpenText(filefrompath, Excel.XlPlatform.xlWindows,1, Excel.XlTextParsingType.xlDelimited, Excel.XlTextQualifier.xlTextQualifierDoubleQuote, false, true, false, false, false, false,m_objOpt, m_objOpt, m_objOpt, m_objOpt, m_objOpt, m_objOpt, m_objOpt); m_objBook = m_objExcel.ActiveWorkbook; m_objSheets = m_objBook.Worksheets; m_objSheet = (Excel.Worksheet)m_objSheets.get_Item(1);//Get the reference of second worksheet string strWorksheetName = m_objSheet.Name;//Get the name of worksheet. if (newtabname != "") { m_objSheet.Name = newtabname; } if (filetopath !="") { // Save the text file in the typical workbook format and quit Excel. m_objBook.SaveAs(filetopath, Excel.XlFileFormat.xlWorkbookNormal, m_objOpt, m_objOpt, m_objOpt, m_objOpt, Excel.XlSaveAsAccessMode.xlNoChange, m_objOpt, m_objOpt, m_objOpt, m_objOpt, m_objOpt); } //if (filetopath !="") } //if (filefrompath != "") m_objBook.Close(false, m_objOpt, m_objOpt); m_objExcel.Quit(); } //SaveAsExcel </code></pre>

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.
