ALV report Export with text columns truncated and numeric with '*'

Specifically, In transacton S_P99_41000111 the ALV grid reads complete on the screen, have to widen columns for some text, but all data is in the grid.

the report is saved to a local file, Spreadsheet

When it is opened the text field are truncated and number have asterick '*' in them indicating too many chacaters.

If i Widen all columns on the ALV view of grid and THEN export, all characters are in EXCEL

If i run it in the background the spool file has truncated fields.

Is there a way so the report will default to all characters downloading?

Thank you
