Is there any way to change this? Everytime I save a report to a text file then view it in excel all the data is rounded to the nearest number?

Datapage does NOT 'round' any data, it stores all data to 8 places or something like that. There is a setting in Datapage where you can tell it to display to a certain number of places, OPTIONS ~ SYSTEM OPTIONS and you can set it from 1 to 6 decimal places. Your excel might be set to zero places.

Internally, all the values are binary using as much precision as MS allows. Output uses the number of decimal places specified by the user (1-6).
