<pre>Importing a CSV file from my bank for tax purposes. The currency fields came
in as text strings. The only choices to reformat the fields were as dates,
general not as a numeric or currency as a result I was unable to perform
calculations against these fields without nually strip the string identify from
each field! (I see were some one entered a fix request to define numerics as
strings. This makes absolutely no sense. (I am lucky I have a MAC. I had to
use Apple's Numbers spreadsheet application. Please rethink this.</pre>
