I am creating a column of passwords some of which need to begin with a zero.
When I move to a new cell it automatically drops the initial zero and is
making my 4 digit password 3 numbers. Is tehre a way to keep it set as a
number not text and still elt it hold the inital 0? I am using Excel 2002.

Thanks
