Hi!! I am trying to import a contact list from excel into FMP, v. 7 - After I import it, any zip code that starts with a 0 (zero) does not disply the 0. Also, I cannot inport the dashes it seems, but that is a minor thing. The main thing is the zero.

i.e. imported 04875-1566

displays 48751566

Is there any way of doing an exact import to import exactly what is in the excel file?

Thanks a million - Gemini9189

The field MUST be text result, by chance are the 0s missing before you import? Is the Field a Number in Excel? You might try changing it to Text and see what happens.

Actually I just figured it out.

The field was a text field with a formula in excel.

What I did to make it work was save the entire excel file as a .csv first - Then it imported very easily.

I appreciate all of your help though!!
