Question : 2007 - Text fields imported from Excel have a format property of '@'

Hello -
When I import data into Access 2007 from Excel 2007, the text fields have a format of '@' (see attached snapshot). Is anyone else seeing this? If so, what is the significance of this format type? For that matter, is it a valid format type? I don't get an error if I save the table with that value in the format property.
