Negative values might be interpreted as text when exporting a table to Microsoft Excel using SAS Web Report Studio, SAS Web OLAP Viewer, or the Visual Data Explorer. The values are encoded and are not interpreted correctly. For example, a numeric value such as -12 might be exported as "−12". Microsoft Excel will read "−12" as -12 but interprets it as text instead of a number. This makes the number not available for computations in Microsoft Excel.
