title: xlsxwriter bloomberg formula
body: <p>I'm trying to get xlsxwriter to put a =BDP formula in a cell, but it results in an error when I try to open the excel output and the result is 0.0
  Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks!</p>
  <pre><code>sheet.write_formula('B3','=BDP(&quot;id&quot;,&quot;field&quot;)')
  </code></pre>
