I've one table with one column containing zip codes. The problem is that
when I export using Excel, the zeros from the left are removed. Is there a
known workaround for this?
Thanks

Yes. The problem is Strings are being converted to numbers automatically. This was
just brought to my attention last week. That behavior was never the intent and the
implementation is correctly fixed in the trunk now.

Technically the difference is before it was converting the Object to a String and
then checking to see if it only contained numbers, and now it does a check to see if
the Object is really a Number.

This will go out with the next release.
