Hey Experts,<br />
<br />
I am trying to create an ASCII file from data on an Excel spreadsheet using VBA code. Everything is working wonderfully except that large numbers are being formatted on the file with scientific notation and some of the numbers are having their decimal places rounded. These are monetary amounts so I need them to be 2 decimal places as represented in the spreadsheet.<br />
<br />
Any ideas about how to get the data written to the ASCII file as formatted on the spreadsheet?<br />
<br />
Thanks,<br />

How to write accurate fully qualified numerical data to an ascii file from Excel using VBA

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.

Visual Basic Classic

Microsoft Excel topics include formulas, formatting, VBA macros and user-defined functions, and everything else related to the spreadsheet user interface, including error messages.

VBScript (Visual Basic Scripting Edition) is an interpreted scripting language developed by Microsoft that is modeled on Visual Basic, but with some important differences. VBScript is commonly used for automating administrative and other tasks in Windows operating systems (by means of the Windows Script Host) and for server-side scripting in ASP web applications. It is also used for client-side scripting in Internet Explorer, specifically in intranet web applications.
