Default when I type a long number it shows up as smaller number and +

Yes, just specify the format that you want.
Format Cells...Number0 decimal places

when converting from xls to csv format, some of my longer mortgage numbers
get condensed into a smaller number with a letter, a plus sign and another
number. example: 100020013120 turns into 1.0002E+11. Any way to get
rid
of this? Thanks,
