some numbers expressed as date when downloaded as xlsx file

I created some numbers in a table and downloaded the table into xlsx using writetable function. Then some numbers are displayed as date in the output xlsx file. How can I fix this issue?

Blame Excel. You should probably explicitly set the data type to Number in Excel.

Hi alpedhuez,

You can create a table and export into xlsx file with the help of writable function using this documentation link.

You can select the columns in excel spreadsheet and change the number format in xlsx file to Number if any dates are visible.

Hope this Helps!
