How to add leading zero's to number to make char count = 6 ?
Bob:
Is there a way of formatting the numbers to get the leading zeros and leave
them as numbers (not text)??

Hi,
All the cells in Column B in a worksheet must be 6 chars long. If I have a
string 123 in cell A1 using VBA how would I populate cell B2 with this
value
including leading Zero to fill the gap to 6 characters. Column A could
contain a number with anything between 1 and 6 characters.
So for example the result should be
A B
1 123 000123
2 52 000052
3 52174 052174
Thanks
Paul
