Export Parts List

[Anonymous]

I just noticed this was happening. Note the apostrophe in front of a the
dimension value. It's in front of all of them. Does anyone know why & how to
make it stop doing that?
Thanks,

If I remember my Excel correctly, the apostrophe tells Excel to ignore
the cell formatting and treat the entry as a text entry. It will
prevent arithmetic functions or date functions on numeric entries that
you want entered as text.

Thanks Hal,
Do you know if there's a way to turn that off? (along with the units suffix)
I know I can find & replace with "nothing" pretty quick but it would be
faster if I could just set it & forget it. That way I can sort by material
then length. ( we have our drawing parts list sort by material then
thickness)

Happens to me from time to time. No rhyme or reason. sometimes it comes in
that way and then other times it does not. I would like to be able to write
to a template with this stuff set.

Don't know how to tell IV to not export the unit of measure.
