tFileExcelSheetOutput only output cells in text format

HI.

 

I'm new with this component tFileExcelSheetOutput and I made a job that outputs a WorkBook with 5 sheets from scratch, without a template file.

 

I'm opening the tFileExcelWorkBook with options "Create empty workbook" and "Memory Saving" checked.

 

At the each tFileExcelSheetOutput I´m trying to set different header names and cell formats. My data source have both string and numbers (long, double and BigDecimal). The only option checked was "Include header".


The job works fine but when I opened the Excel file, all the cells are in text format. The header was changed as I expected but the format of numbers cells doesn't. Worse, all cells remains as text format.

 

What have I done wrong? Should need I to use a template file?

 

Thanks for any help,

One more thing. I discovered that problem occurs when I checked "Include header". Without this, the data format works fine. But I need both format number and header.
