I was wondering if anyone knew how I can change the Excel rendering format in the reportserverconfig file
so the default cell format is text and not General. If not, is there any way to format my fields in the stored procedure so when I download to Excel it formats as text?
Thanks

Posting kinda late on this one but... have you tried encapsulating the item in double quotes?

RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
