Number Formats - Why does excel show 12.% instad of 12.0%?

I have a percentage cell within a matrix. I want this cell to be formatted to 1 decimal place, so I use the format of ##0.#% (After trying P1 etc). The cell appears formatted ok within the report viewer:

100%

12.9%

However after exporting to Excel the following occurs:

100.% - There is no 0 after the decimal point (but there is a decimal point . )

12.9% - Works ok when the the trailing digit is not a 0

Any ideas?

format: ##0.0%
