+## Description
+
+When exporting reports to CSV with the ReportProcessor class in Telerik Reporting, currency values formatted using a [TextBox]({%slug telerikreporting/designing-reports/report-structure/textbox%})'s `Format` property (e.g., `"{0:C2}"`) include group separators and currency symbols. This formatting prevents Excel from recognizing the exported values as numbers. Contrary to expectations, the CSV rendering extension respects the `Format` property of report items, which is intentional behavior. Adjusting the `Culture` object does not resolve this issue due to changes in the report processing pipeline.
+
+## Solution
+
+To ensure numeric values are recognized correctly in CSV export, programmatically remove the `Format` property from the relevant TextBox items before exporting the report. Follow these steps:
+
+1. Locate the TextBox items in the report.
+1. Clear the `Format` property of the TextBox items programmatically before the export operation.
+
+Here is an example implementation:
+
+````CSharp
+private void GenerateReport(string format)
+{
+ //...
+ if (format == "CSV")
+ {
+ var textBox2 = report.Items.Find("textBox2", true).FirstOrDefault();
+ (textBox2 as Telerik.Reporting.TextBox).Format = null;
+ }
+ //...
+}
+````
+
+To apply this approach to multiple textbox items in similar scenarios, modify the code that locates the items as needed. For example:
+
+````CSharp
+var textBoxItems = report.Items.Find(typeof(Telerik.Reporting.TextBox), true).ToList();
+````
+
+This approach removes formatting applied to the TextBox items, ensuring the exported CSV contains raw numeric values.
