BIP 11.1.1.7.0: Alphanumeric field in Excel Template

edited Aug 19, 2013 7:03AM in BI Publisher (MOSC) 2 commentsAnswered ✓
Hello,

We have an alphanumeric field, defined as a VARCHAR2 field in the database that can have values such as:

12345

05678

ABCDE

When running this throught the Excel Template, the values that contain leading zeroes loose those zeros i.e. 05678 shows up as 5678 in Excel output.

Is there a way to handle this? I tried formatting the field as General or Text but the leading zero is still dropped from output.

Thanks,

Manish

Howdy, Stranger!
