Default preserving zeros in spreadsheet

Hi There, I've been working on this for what seems like forever.
Basically, what I am trying to accomplish is the copying of a Accounting field, $ 4501.00, into a file I will then be converting into a fixed width file in Access. I can't seem to preserve the trailing zeros when I move the data. It just copies over as such: 4501. This fixed width file will be used for posting dollars so 450100 needs to post and not 4501. Any ideas?
