The reason is, that Excel handles CR and Linefeeds in a other way as your Database.
 
Thats the reason, why .csv works fine, so long as you don't have the ' " ' sign in your datas. Here i have had allready troubles with .csv files and i have use my own seperator for the import into Excel.

Subject: Witango-Talk: SQL 2000 Bug?

I was able to reproduce this on two machines with a different data set on
each machine.

SQL 2000 Server Service Pack 1
Windows 2000 Server Service Pack 2

Using the export wizard
Export the tables to Excel 92-2001 format

When tables are opened in Excel data is not in the correct columns. Not all
the data just some.

Do same export to .csv and data opened in excel is fine.
