Cube View NoData Formatting in Excel

Is there a way to format 'NoData' cells so that when the report exports to excel it shows a dash or 0, instead of the cell being blank?

    Hi,

    I was able to accomplish this using UD8 dynamic calc. By setting up a dynamic calc to return a 0 if IsNoData is TRUE. Then you can use the Excel formatting as Krishna mentioned.

    Dim cellCheck As DataCell = api.Data.GetDataCell("UD8#None")

    If cellCheck.CellStatus.IsNoData() Then
          Return 0
    Else
         Return api.Data.GetDataCell("UD8#None").CellAmount
    End If

    Thank you,

    Thomas Uhler

SaBrien  - Try this setting in the CV Cell Format in Excelformat  ExcelNumberFormat = [#,###,0;(#,###,0);-]

We've tried many variations using the excel number format but none seem to work. Any cell that has 'NoData' will be blank and we were wanting them to show zeros.
