Changing my column data type to Numeric works for me. Make sure that Decimal 
is set to zero.

 Have used this on IDNumbers successfully for several years.

  RBASE integer column will only hold numbers up to 1,999,999,999

   

  You need to use DOUBLE data type.

  Good Morning all,

   

  I am trying to import a column of data that is numeric.

   

  Using gateway from XLS to both new table and existing table the numbers seem 
to be changed.

   

  What shows as for example 48601251315 in an excel numeric column becomes 
1356611059 in RBASE integer column.

   

  Thank you for the information about SKEEP on a related post.

  Tom Eldred
