Re: Creating Excel File from SQR (numeric text)



Dom,
Chances are that you are sending the field with the leading zeroes but when you import the file you have to specify that column as text not number.

I am trying to create a .csv file from SQR.
My problem is fields like ssn which could have a leading 0.  No matter what I
try it
when I open the .csv file in excel it drops the leading 0.
"012345678" becomes 12345678.
How do you write out numeric text fields?
