It is probably something that Excel should handle. It seems like a UniCode issue, but the source data-type is just Number. I thought there was also a possiblity that the problem could be in my SQL view code or linked-server settings. I included the SQL view code below. I spelled out the fields instead of using *, but it still has the problem.

CREATE VIEW [dbo].[vwIMPACT_FEE_DATA]

AS

SELECT [Applicant]

,[Phone]

,[Address Line 1]

,[Address Line 2]

,[City]

,[State]

,[Zip Code]

,[Premise Address]

......

,[Meter Size]

,[Water Flow]

,[Water Supply]

,[Water System Dev]

,[WW Treatment]

,[WW Collection]

,[Service Line Total]

FROM HANSEN..SAWS.VW_IMPACT_FEE_DATA
