Hi all,
Happy New Year to everyone
I'm having an issue exporting a table from my report. I'm trying to export the data as it is shown below:

Many thanks,
@Anonymous,
Try creating a measure that adds a leading single-quote. This causes Excel to treat the value as text instead of converting it to a number.
ItemCode Export = CONCATENATE ( "'", MAX ( Table1[ItemCode] ) )
Add this measure to your visual and export to Excel:
