Numbers showing as text in Excel

I am using the following statement to give occurrences a numerical value but when I pull into Excel it identifies it as text. How do I get it to send the data to Excel as a number? Fixing manually in Excel is not an option. Here is my statement:
(CASE WHEN
[Loans].[LN Master].[Participation Code (LNMA)] IN ('s','S')
THEN
'1'
ELSE
'0'
END)
I appreciate any assistance.
Thanks,
Ariana

Hi,

Have you tried:

(CASE WHEN
[Loans].[LN Master].[Participation Code (LNMA)] IN ('s','S')
THEN
1
ELSE
0
END)

 :o Thank you so much! You would be amazed how many people tried to fix this and failed at my place of business. In retrospect, it is all kind of silly.
