When I try to ODBC an access database, I can't ODBC and keep the format of a
custom number. So, instead of 4.00 its reading 400. I formatted the column
to read @@@@@@@.@@ as the number format. Is there a way I can preserve the
number formatting when I use ODBC to query the database?

Try using #,##0.00 as the format.
