I'm importing data through the import text wizard. In the windows on the wizard I can see that my numerical data includes 6 decimal places (which I want). When I actually run the wizard, I get only two decimal places in the table I'm creating. I'm importing the numerical data as Double data type. All help is appreciated!

 
ok check the table you are importing too. You may find that the field has a Decimal places set to (Auto)or (2) change this to (6) this will make sure the decimals are set correctly on import, now check the display form and make sure the field is set to (6) also other wise it will only display (2).

Hope this helps.
