Thanks for the reply. The numbers are left aligned, I have tried changing it to number format (and it shows that it is number formatted) but still will not add up my column, and no notification

Not sure where else to chage the format?

Select column E:E
Data | Text to columns, pick delimited, in the next step clear all delimiters and proceed by clicking next then finish.
- IngridKCApr 22, 2022Copper ContributorOn my old PC my data would fill the columns correctly when importing but now I need do Text to column. If I clear all delimiters the data remains in one column.
Would be great if you know how I can import so it automatically fills the coloumns , would probably solve all issues.- Patrick2788Apr 22, 2022Silver ContributorIt depends on the source of your data. It appears the source is coming from outside of Office 365. When this is the case, Excel will often pull in the data and evaluate a column of numbers as text. If the data is not filling out into columns it may be missing a delimiter.
