Default How can stop a 9 digit number from formatting scientific

Have you tried widening the column?

But I don't know what a pivot table/csv file means. Does this mean you're
having trouble in the CSV file?

If you're checking the CSV file by reopening it in excel, try checking the
layout using a text editor -- like NotePad.

I have tried and better tried formatting the cell, gone into tools/edit etc
but to no avail I am running out of time for submission - help!
