I’m using iReport 2.0.2.
I have a problem with formatting numeric data after generating report with help of Excel exporter.

For example, the 85110057689 string is showing as 8.51100e+10 in Excel file (as result of using “preview in Excel” button in iReport).

Please suggest how to change the format to the simple (not scientific).

    We can use net.sf.jasperreports.export.xls.detect.cell.type property for solving issue.

    The quote from documentation:

    net.sf.jasperreports.export.xls.detect.cell.type

    Property whose value is used as default state of the IS_DETECT_CELL_TYPE export flag.

    Specifies whether the exporter should take into consideration the type
    of the original text field expressions and set the cell types and
    values accordingly.

    For example we can set this property for the whole report:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<jasperReport xmlns="http://jasperreports.sourceforge.net/jasperreports" ...>
    <property name="net.sf.jasperreports.export.xls.detect.cell.type" value="true"/>
