Todd,

Put an apostrophe before the first 0.
'0700
Excel will treat this as text.
You won't be able to do any calculations with it though.

I am trying to get the number 0700 to appear as 0700 in a cell, not as 700.
When I type it in, Excell automatically corrects what it thinks is a
mistake.
Is there a way to make it appear as 0700?
