I pulled data from a SQL server into PowerPivot for analysis. Some of the fields are text which have a line break/[Enter] in the data. When I export (copy/paste) the data from PowerPivot into Excel it is dumping the data into seperate rows based on the number of line breaks in the original data. I've tried Paste Special -> CSV, Text, Unicode and still the same result. I need the data to stay in one field in order to perform various analysis via Pivot tables.

Any advice is greatly appreciated - thanks in advance!
