Default TextToColumn Split

Below is part of a macro which splits a fixed width file into the required
columns, ColSplit being the variable for the split positions. When this is
imported into Excel how can I make all the fields be Text formatted as it is
formatting the columns as General at the moment and leading zeros are being
dropped.

Many thanks

Selection.TextToColumns Destination:=Range("A1"), DataType:=xlFixedWidth, _
FieldInfo:=Array(Array(0, 1), Array(ColSplit(1), 1),
Array(ColSplit(2), 1), Array(ColSplit(3), 1), Array(ColSplit(4), 1), _
Array(ColSplit(5), 1), Array(ColSplit(6), 1), Array(ColSplit(7), 1),
Array(ColSplit(8), 1), Array(ColSplit(9), 1), Array(ColSplit(10), 1), _
Array(ColSplit(11), 1), Array(ColSplit(12), 1))
