Matlab Importdata Precision

Question

I'm trying to use importdata for several data files containing data of a precision up to 11 digits after the decimal, is Matlab seems to think I am only interested in the first 5 digits when using importdata, is there an alternative method I could use to load my data, or a method to define the precision to which I want my data loaded?

Answer 1

First try:

format long g

Also, can you paste some of the data you are trying to load?
