subcategories prefix with hyphen in excel

subcategories prefix with hyphen in excel was created by james dumar
Hi there, when i export csv, product subcategories prefix with a hyphen which excel sees as a minus sign operator, thus the subcategories read as #NAME?.
Can you tell me how to fix this please?

version excel-like 1.1.29

This is from my work, so if we need a new version let me know and i will hit up the boss.
Kind of urgent for me :-)

Thanks!

Well if name is '#NAME' then it would be incorrect to change that to 'NAME'.

I suppose we can tell you where to change code to so '#NAME' exports to '@NAME' and '@NAME' imports to '#NAME' for example. So some sore of character replacement. Will this suit you ?

It this joomla/VM or WP/Woo ?

Thanks for the quick reply!
It is on Joomla.

It is caused by =-name ( of sub category)
main categories work fine

Ok I got it via email.

In CSV itself it is '#NAME?'.

Can we get access to site so we can have a look?
