title: Stop Excel from converting a string to a number
body: <p>I have a column in my CSV file that contains a string of numbers separated by commas. Excel keeps converting them to numbers even though I want to treat it as text.</p>
  
  <p>Example:</p>
  
  <pre><code>470,1680 get converted to 4,701,680
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, I want it to stay as 470,1680</p>
  
  <p>I tried to format the cells as text but that removes the original comma. How can I achieve this?</p>
