Hi All, I am successfully creating csv files with one expection. Occasionally, I will have a column created from a text field, that looks like a number. For example 6108900015297 Most other data does not look like that there could be letters, dashes, etc part if customer PO number. When I open the document this item as well as others like it come in as scientific notation. Can anyone advise how I might stop that from happening
This is the code I am using. Indeed when you open with text editor the data looks correct. It is only when opened by excel where it looks like this 6.1089E+12 instead of 6108900015297 $line_txt:=$line_txt+Char(Double quote)+Replace string($arr_ptr->{$Rows_L};Char(Double quote);Char(Double quote)+Char(Double quote))+Char(Double quote) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chuck Miller Voice: (617) 739-0306 Informed Solutions, Inc.
