Is there anything I can do in the writing of a .csv (not .xls) file so that when Excel opens the file, text columns like a part number will not be interpreted as a date (example part number = 737039).
I know I can (with more effort) write a .xls, but this file is being processed as an import to a windows app, and user is reviewing with Excel. They don't want to have to re-format many columns.
btw-Double and single quotes already exist within the data (" = inches and ' = feet...)
