Yes - i is a number (as it is the index of the for loop) so the value
of the array element is a number, and so appears as '1' (not affected
by numberFormat).

However, array keys are *always* strings, so when you set the array key
numberFormat comes into play and the key is '01' and not '1'.

Warmest Regards,
