    minhuan Workaround: Preserve Display Formatting in Export

    To ensure that Excel shows "<10" instead of the actual number, you can modify your measure to return text instead of numeric values:

     

    _x = SWITCH( TRUE(), ISBLANK([measure]), BLANK(), [measure] < 10, "<10", FORMAT([measure], "General") )
