title: Sharepoint list loses its IssueID column when exported to Excel, why?
body: <p>My team current uses a Sharepoint list to manage bugs, issues etc for the project.
  I frequently use the "Export to Spreadsheet" feature in Sharepoint to manage the list from within Excel, where I can edit, update and sync at my leisure.</p>
  
  <p>However, I just got given a shiny new PC, and now whenever I use this feature, the <strong>IssueID</strong> column disappears.</p>
  
  <p>On my <strong>old</strong> PC, I get the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>A     B     C
  ID    ID    Title ..... etc
  1     246   foo
  2     258   bar
  3     266   foobar
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>whereby column A would simply be an index of row numbers, and column B was the "true" IssueID.</p>
  
  <p>On my <strong>new</strong> PC, I get the following</p>
  
  <pre><code>A     B     
  ID    Title ..... etc
  1     foo
  2     bar
  3     foobar
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>which means that I no longer have the corresponding unique ID for each line item - which is, frankly, useless !</p>
  
  <p>Both of my PCs are Win XP, Excel 2003 and IE6 (i know, but it's company policy), connecting to the same Sharepoint site.</p>
  
  <p>Can anyone point out where I might be going wrong ?</p>
  
  <p>Many thanks,</p>
