Is it possible to have excel recognize column as text, and not a number?

[davegri]

I'm currently exporting a column from javascript and converting it to a string. For some reason though excel parses it as a number and removes leading zeros if I try to edit the column. Is it possible to specify something that can fix this?

Thanks

You can change the types of columns using built-in column parsers or checkType parameter.
