Description Pete Edwards 2014-06-26 20:45:56 UTC
Unfortunately when Excel opens a CSV containing ISBN numbers it converts them to scientific notation by default so 9781472413703 becomes 9.78147E+12. One solution is to put the ISBN numbers in quotes so they are treated as strings but it would also be good if this export used the same services as Reports and provided other formats e.g. Open Document Spreadsheet.
