    Verifying correct data types in columns in Excel for use in Access

    In Access all column data should be the same data type (number, text, etc.). Is there a way in Excel to verify that all data is the same type?

    If you have it turned on background error checking will show up numbers stored as text, you can also use built in functions like ISNUMBER/ISTEXT.
