Hey Chip

I'm doing an upload that requires a "number" format. However, alot of the
numbers have leading zeroes. Is "custom" 0000 considered a "number"
formatted field.

Use a custom number format of 000000 or as many zero as you need.

I often deal with account numbers with leading zeros. When I
place them in a
cell Excel automatically deletes the leading zeros. Is there a
way to format
the cell to hold the zeros?
