Description of the issue

The database I am using does an automatic import from an XLSX file. One of the fields contains a list of IDs that proceed with an alpha numeric pattern. For instance 11d-3, 11d-4, 07s-01, 08s-01, 09s-01, 11s-01, etc. Some of the IDs end up looking like the e in math notation (10e-01, 10e-02, 10e-03, etc). When these rows are imported they are being converted to 1, .1, .01, etc. The field they are being imported to is a text field. Also, they are formatted as text in the Excel file.

Steps to reproduce the problem

Create an XLSX field with a column containing the data below. Import this data into a text field. You will see that all of the items except the last two are converted into number.
10e-01
10e-02
10e-03
10e-04
10e-05
10e-06
10e-07
10e-08
10e-09
10e-10
10e-11
10e-12
10f-01
10f-02

Expected result

10e-01
10e-02
10e-03
10e-04
10e-05
10e-06
10e-07
10e-08
10e-09
10e-10
10e-11
10e-12
10f-01
10f-02

Actual result

1
.1
.01
.001
.0001
.00001
.000001
.0000001
.00000001
.000000001
1.0e-10
1.0e-11
10f-01
10f-02

Workaround

I have altered the script to change those fields back to what they should be after the import.
