[AccessD] mailto: in excel export of email address

[Stuart McLachlan]

It's a long term  Excel "feature".

You probably have the Autoformat optione turned off in Exccel while the cilent has it turned 
on.

Suggest you try using the  option of prepending an apostrophe to that field inr your export 
query.
