Hey Lee

The trick to get excel to show the leading zero is to use = (for example if you were outputting to a table for excel...):


<html xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns:x="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40";> <head> <meta http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> <meta name=ProgId content=Excel.Sheet> </head> <table> <tr> <th>Name</th> <th>Username</th> <th>Address_1</th> <th>Address_2</th> <th>Address_3</th> <th>Address_City</th> <th>Address_Postcode</th> </tr> <tr> <td>MR A</td> <td>="012345"</td> <td>Stan</td> <td>Here St</td> <td>This Place</td> <td>Cristchurch</td> <td>="00125"</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Mrs B</td> <td>="000882"</td> <td>Fran</td> <td>Here St</td> <td>This Place </td> <td>Aukland</td> <td>="00126"</td> </tr> </table> </html>


Hope this helps,


Ro.

 Not sure if this is the appropriate newsgroup, but any help would be
appreciated.
 I'm using XSL to stylesheet XML and output it to html and excel and they
work great.
  Only thing is for excel, I noticed that it drops all leading zeroes by
default so that

<myTag>0000123</myTag> would show up 123 in excel cell in stead of 0000123

  Any trick I can use in XSL to show it correctly in excel?
  Thanks
