Does anyone know how to format a column in a pass through query?

I am using a pass through to Oracle, and numeric fields are being returned as text in the query result window.

I have tried multiplying the field by 1, and using the to_number oracle function on the field in the SQL.

Nothing works, Access returns the numeric data as text.
