Default How do I insert a leading zero?

Hi Nick,

After reading Gord's reply below I realized that he was right. I changed the
format, and it worked great after that.

I apprieciate your input.

Thank You.

If they are preformatted as text, use a new column and enter

="0"&C1

and copy it down. If you want to replace the old values, just copy the new
ones and editpaste special...values the new over the old

Hello,


I have some text values (in Col C) that need 1 (one) leading zero put in:

I have some text values below:

306445854
250641222

which I want to look like:

0306445854
0250641222

How do I do this?

TIA for your replies.

Phil.
