Mike,

Right, good question. Did I forget to mention that our system doesn't work
along with this solution. Thing is, in column A (or cel A1) for that matter
you can see 00123456789 but it actually is just a change in format (as you
suggested), i.e. in the function bar 123456789 is still displayed and this is
copied (and therefore does not work in my case).

Hi,

Why not select these 9 digit numbers and apply a custom format of 00000000000

That's 11 zeroes.

Hi All,

Hope you can help me (think it's fairly easy). In column A there's list of
numbers (9 characters long). One of our systems requires that the list of
numbers (or per number) is preceded by 2 zero's, ie. 12345678 becomes
0012345678. I reckon a cut/copy and paste is a good option but (off course)
I'm looking for a piece of programming that changes the numbers into the
desired format.

Thnx in advance
