Exported numeric data downloads as Text in excel

Hi,
Is there a way to download data such that each column in the downloaded data is in it’s respective format for example numeric data to be downloaded in columns with the number format

@alexiga, could you provide more details on this? Do you mean if the question is in text type, the downloaded data should also be in text format, if the question is in integer type, the downloaded data should also be in number format if the question is in date type the downloaded data should also be in date format?

@Kal_Lam , Am more interested in the integer type questions, the question types can be downloaded in the general format but could the integer type questions be downloaded in number format
