Displaying exponent value as string in PERL script

Hello All,

I am currently having an issue displaying a exponent value using perl,

I have a perl program which generates an xls file. This xls is populated with values from a database. But for a certain column which I have made explicitely text and also implemented keep_leading_zeroes() property , I find that when I have a DB value like “16951E194″ the xls populates it as 1.6951e+194 . How do I resolve this with perl.

Thanks in advance
S
