Trying to import this into Power Query, but the numbers in Column U to AB are appearing as whole numbers rather than including the decimals that can be seen if you click on the cell.

The steps that I have done:
Put file into folder
Open a From Folder query
Transform Data
Add Custom Column: Excel.Workbook([Content])
Expand the DATA
Then the numbers will show as rounded whole numbers

Not sure why this is happening. Any ideas how to show with decimals?
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
When I change the format to decimals in native excel before importing to PQ, then they are shown as decimals. In native excel they are formatted as whole numbers.

Do you mean like this? 2021-03-16-09h57-33
Selecting the columns, CTRL+1, Number, 2 decimals?
Gave it a try, refreshed the Query, but doesn't seem to work.

Not a big deal though. I will keep trying
