Avoid Alteryx remove leading space when write data into excel

[IMSL]

Hi all,

How can I avoid Alteryx remove leading space when write data into excel.

I want to keep the indent.

Below is a similar discussion but I am looking for a solution to publish in xlsm not a csv file:

Hey @IMSL,

This is not something that Alteryx does, but Excel does. Once you open a file leading whitespaces are deleted. 

(You can check this yourself, when you call the file in Alteryx again before you open it in Excel it still has the Whitespace; after it is opened in Excel, it doesn't have it).

I am not sure there is a solution (can't find one) - but this would be a question for an Excel forum, Alteryx performs as expected here.
