James, 
Unless I am being stupid then on the assumption that the HIP_No field is
character VFP data with leading zero's and trailing decimals in the form
"00009.4023" then make the select statement for the HIP_No field like the
following:

Select all
        Int(Val(Hip_No)) as Hip_No
>From ...

The field will then be transferred as a numeric field into Excel.

If you need to round it then just add the round() function into the select
statement as this will simply take the integer part of the character field.
Just be careful of any null field values you have.

Somehow I think that it isn't exactly what you want to do but.... holla if
it is different.
