Formating excel cell as Text to geenrate BIRT xls report with more than 15 digits in a column

gsateesh

Hi All,I am having problem in displaying column values in excel report. In my table, each row for a particular column is having digits more than 15 and upto 30. When I generate excel report, excel is adding 0's after 15digits. I tried by adding apstophy(') before the number then its showing entire text but with apstophy which is not looking good (Customer doesn't like this). Can any body help me with a work around?. Thanks in advance.

Hi, instead of using a simple binding, use a dynamic text fieldSee example

Hi,I have tried this option also but initially the generated excel report is showing entire number( even if it is having more than 15 digits) as a text. But when I click on the cell, excel is treating that as number stored as text and it is formatting as number by appending leading zeros.

I've made different try but I didn't get it works like you want.The only way I found is to generate the output field as string, but you're right, when you convert text to number in Excel, it always put 0 after 15 digits.
