Hi, I am running into an issue and still very confused why this is happening.
Is anyone able help me reproduce this issue with ArcMap 10.3 ? I logged a ticket with ESRI Support but they are not able to reproduce it on their end, they are using ArcMap 10.4
I am using Windows 7 64bit and ArcMap 10.3 and Excel 2013
Issue: When converting Worksheet with lat/long to shapefile, Worksheet file will round the 10 digit phone number field (double), last digit will always be zero. No issue with CSV file.
Here are the steps:
1. Open New Excel worksheet. Add the headings - Name, Phone, Latitude, Longitude. Add a record, i used a retail store for Petco in SD - Google Maps. Save File as a Excel workbook(default) as Test.xlsx
2. Using the Catalog window in ArcMap, convert Sheet 1 within Test.xlsx to Shapefile (Create Feature Class) > From XY Table > Coordinates System (WGS 1984).
3. Open Test.shp and compare phone field - The phone field will be 8586130200. The correct value should be 8586130197.
I found this article - Formatting numeric fields in tables—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop but I dont seem to be able to make adjustment to display the correct value.
I have attached the file for testing.
Thank you!
Make your phone column in worksheet as general or text.
