Exporting numbers as text -Using Desktop App

Hi,

 

Since the update this month, all our reports are exporting numbers as text into excel. I know it works correctly in the browser but all our custom reports for month end reporting is only on the desktop app.

 

Any one else having this issue or have a solution?

 

Thanks.

    JS321​ , have you considered creating an Excel macro to store in your personal workbook that would automate the text-to-number correction? If you wish, send me an example of a report which needs correction, my email address is on our home page (datawise.co.nz), and I'll set one up.

    Hi Mike,

     

    Thanks so much for all your suggestions. I can do a work around so that's okay, but I was hoping to get to the bottom of why this was suddenly occurring. Since you don't have the same issue, I'll check the MS Office angle.
