Hatton,
        You can do this straight without using cf_html2Excel
        For the specific problem with '000000' just use " "
        in the table def <td>&nbsp;Field</td>

        <cfcontent type="application/vnd.ms-excel">
        <!-- Start your table here-->

Subject: cf_HTML2Excel Question


Does anyone have any expeirence with this tag?  I have it working almost 
to where I need it but I'm running into an odd problem.

I have a field that is coming in from a SQL Server VarChar with '000000' 
as the value in the field.  It is being output to the HTML as 000000 in 
the table but for some reason the excel file is translating it as a 
numeric value and saving a single 0 in the file.  The problem is that 
it's *supposed* to be a numeric value, so now I guess the question is 
how to I force the tag (or more to the point, Excel) to save the numbers 
as characters?

TIA!
Hatton
