I am trying to export a table to a csv file but the numbers are showing up like this

Guess i need to have some formatting added to a query?
 
the values are too "small" as you can see.

dont understand as then if i open the file in excel and change the format its all correct?
 
Nothing to worry about. The Excel column is too small to display. Expand the column to see the full number.
 
Once you open Excel, be sure to change the format of those columns to text. NOT general. TEXT. Unless you need to do arithmetic. In which case, use a specific numeric format. Otherwise, you could end up with the long numbers saved in scientific notation and loose part of the values.
