Exporting to excel

I am exporting (along with many other fields) a notes portal to Excel that contains free form note taking. Many of the notes appear after export in the Excel with######## instead of the text in the field in FileMaker. I discovered a group of .....( a string of periods) will cause this and deleted them from the field and eliminated many of the problem records,however I still have many left with the same issue. Is there a known group of symbols that Excel does not like from FileMaker that will cause this?

try switching (in excel) the cell format to "general" instead of text.
