Description: ------------ $textFormat->setNumFormat('@') or $textFormat->setNumFormat(49) doesn't work for formatting data as text (such as numbers that you want stored as text). I referred to open office document for the excel file format (page 160) for the @ and the 49 that should refer to formatting as text. So numbers starting with zero loose their zeros and long numbers show as scientific notation. Test script: --------------- <?php require_once "Spreadsheet/Excel/Writer.php"; $workbook =& new Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer(); $workbook->send('test.xls'); $textFormat =& $workbook->addFormat(); $textFormat->setNumFormat('@'); //or 49 $sheet1 =& $workbook->addWorksheet('Not my first sheet'); $sheet1->setColumn(0,0,20,$textFormat); $sheet1->write(0,0,"000034534"); $sheet1->write(1,0,"100000298109"); $sheet1->write(2,0,"00324838284"); $sheet1->write(3,0,"00456744675454654556"); $workbook->close(); ?> Expected result: ---------------- 000034534 100000298109 00324838284 00456744675454654556 Actual result: -------------- 34534 1E+11 324838284 4.56745E+17
