Removing scientific notation from .CSV file

Troubleshooting


Problem

Impromptu retrieves a column from Oracle or another database, and displays it in the body of the report in Scientific Notation. The column is formatted correctly in Impromptu but when saving it as a .CSV file, the scientific notation in this format. This .CSV is needs to be used in Access; how can the scientific notation be removed?
