Title:
  Excel Export - provides numbers as characters

Status in OpenERP Web:
  Invalid
Status in OpenERP Server:
  New

Bug description:
  
  just tried because of Antony's remark
  Btw the new export system was just merged few days ago in commit:
  http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~openerp/openerp-web/trunk/revision/912

  using
  http://client-web-trunk.runbot.openerp.com:9406/web/webclient/home#

  opening an export in Excel ( I tried assets) provides numbers as
  characters makeing the export not very useful for further processing

  numbers must be numbers

  BTW
  1) IMHO export to CSV MUST at least allow to set /overwrite decimal separator !!! 
  it's a source of  permanent annoyance because an export must be done according to the (localized) specs of the import program

  in Openoffice/Libre Office all numeric columns have to be changed
  manually to "US English" which I do not consider as userfriendly at
  all.

  2) IMHO  Default Export Type should be "all data"

  3) export Type "Import compatible" only shows ID ??
