Attention: To align with new corporate security policies, and to match policies adopted by other communities within Oracle, the My Oracle Support Community access requirements will change beginning September 18, 2025. MOSC will now require that member accounts in our community be associated to a *corporate* email address. This means that users with generic domains (such as gmail.com, yahoo.com, and others) will no longer be granted access to the discussion forums and ideas labs. If this policy affects you, act now to change the email address that is associated with your Oracle (and community) account. Alternatively, you can opt to create a new Oracle account that uses your corporate email domain.

XML Publisher - Lose leading zeros when report is output in Excel

Jan 27, 2012 2:32AM edited Jan 27, 2012 7:03AM in BI Publisher (MOSC) 2 commentsAnswered

Hello

We built an XML Publisher report that outputs in Excel. However, we lose the leading zeros for a "text" string when it is output to Excel.

For example, we have Invoice # 0025896

When this invoice is output to Excel, it drops the leading zeros and looks like #25896

We need to retain these leading zeros. How do we do that?

Thanks
