   hello,
   when I export to Excel a telephone number or, if there is a zero start value, it disappears in the data sheet view!
   How to make it appear (French phone number starts with "0" zero)

   Thank you

   This is because Excel automatically format those numbers and remove the leading zero.
   To avoid this behaviour, we can force to write those fields as text.

   Edit your "export_entries.php", search around line 375 and you'll find this:

   $worksheet->write($row_num, $col_num, $data);

   replace that code with this one:

   $worksheet->writeString($row_num, $col_num, $data);

   That should display the leading zero.
