"Hey can you make this excel report for me real quick? Here are the columns, you gotta get them from this table in the database. Shouldn't take long."

Alright, sounds easy enough wait where is the data. I have to join how many tables? What is this bullshit data? I want to strangle the guy who modeled this piece of garbage.

    @iSwimInTheC everything is wrapped in "", you only get that wrong so many times before making every field a string.

    Excel is usually smart enough to change the types back correctly.
