string "0E302" turns into 0.00E+00 when copied to another cell

I have a string array with shows "0E302" as the value.  However when I do a Sheets

("MergeRecords").Cells(n, 3) = CStr(myArray(2)) 

Select allOpen in new window

it ends up on the other sheet as 0.00E+00.

Here is the code to get the information into the array

myArray = Split(ResidentID, "-")

Select allOpen in new window

they all seem to be strings at this point.  Anyone have any ideas.

thanks
