The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Keep leading zeros when importing into Access from Excel

Asked by dbfromnewjersey in Microsoft Applications, Microsoft Office Suite, Microsoft Access Database

I need to keep the leading zeros when importing into Access from Excel. I've attached an Excel file and a an Access database with 3 test records.  In the Excel file, I have the cells in the column in question defined as "custom" with a format of twelve zeros (000000000000).  I also TRIED to do the same thing in Access (defined it as text with a format of 000000000000) but it's not keeping the leading zeros. What am I doing wrong? By the way, as you can see in my Excel file, of the three test records I included, only one is supposed to have leading zeros; that being the '006666666666' record.Start Free Trial
