Web Query Issues In Data Format

Hi,

I'm trying to download data from the following Taiwan Exchange site using web query. However, when I download the list, the "0" at the beginning of every number is automatically erased. Is there a way web query to import the entire list as text format?

Thanks,

Format the column as text

You need to format the column where the numbers are downloaded to as text before running the web query.  This way it will keep the 0 at the beginning.
