I have some users that are exporting a report to excel so that they can do further analysis using a pivot table. The issue that they are running into is when exporting this data from the report excel is reading all the columns as text eventhough some of these are dates and others are numbers. The pivot table in turn then can't do the normal number calculations like sum or average without the user going through and identifying all of the data after the export.Does anyone have an idea of how during the export the report could tell excel what type of column the data is?
