Well, it's important to understand that floating point fields don't have a specific number of decimals.... So when you change the number of decimals in Excel, you're just telling Excel how to DISPLAY the number, you're not changing what it stores in the spreadsheet itself.

When you read the sheet from RPG, you're getting the numeric data, not something formatted for display.
