You probably need to pull the data as "Text" instead of "Fixed". Not only is it rounding, but any leading zeros are being ignored. (Don't know if that's an issue with CC numbers, but for US postal codes it definitely is.)

The field I'm dealing with stores credit card information. The problem is it comes in Scientific notation...if I try to pull as fixed...it works except for the 16 digit card numbers...it rounds the last 2 digits up or down? Any suggestions?
