Hi,
I am using the < l.PrintingSystem.ExportToCsv("CustomCodes.csv"); > to create a csv file from a datagrid. However one of my data fields that is string type and contains data like 004.0, 078.0 etc is exported to csv in a numeric format. The 004.0 is transformed to 4 and 078.0 is transformed to 78. Is this a bug or I made some mistake?
Thanks

Hi Katrin,
Thank you for the report.
I'm sorry but it's not clear how to reproduce the problem. I've created a simple project, and it appears to work fine. See the attached sample.
Please modify it to illustrate the problem or provide us with your own project.

Hi Katrin,
Please accept my sincere apologies for the delay in responding.
It appears that the cause of the problem is that MS Excel program has own algorithm to import CSV file. If you check the created csv file in the Notepad, all data displays perfectly. I am afraid that we cannot change the behavior of the MS Excel program at the level of our controls, sorry.
Thanks,
Elliot
