Can you export your workflow so that we can see the issue better?

 

Otherwise, in Render mode, make sure to change the format here:

it's a simple  Text input -> table  -> render.

 

no matter what setting in the render tool , when i open the excel it shows wrap text which i highlight in red as attached.

It'll be way more helpful if you attach your exported workflow man... 

 

Otherwise I can only tell you that much.

Okay I get what you mean now, you want the Excel output post-Render to not have "Wrap Text" enabled right? Don't think that's possible man.

Exactly, user requirement won't wrap text enabled for data but header.

I think it's due to the nature of how they allow you add custom margins. In order for it to be flexible, it needs the ability to wrap text at all times regardless of whether the user wants it or not.
