Hi,
When I import an excel "CSV" file, large numbers such as " 43988014.3" is imported as "43988014", leaving out the decimal ".4". How to import keeping
the fraction?

"Import from Excel" is a vague problem statement. It's also kind of odd that you have a leading space iside the quotes in the example. Makes me wonder if you got numbers somehow "factorized" because of non- numeric entries in the "csv" file. Why not show the code used to do it _and_ str() on the object? Or even better dput from a row with a "large number"?
