Dave,

Here is the whole process of what I did. I exported data out of worldship
in Excel. When I did this it stripped the leading zeros out of records of
zip codes that begin with a zero. I then added a bunch of missing
information such as phone numbers and e-mails. I save the zip code field as
a text field and then sorted by zip code and use the concatenate to add
zeros back in and then saved my excel file. I then saved it as a csv file
from Excel. I then opened this csv file and noticed that it had stripped
out the zeros from my zip codes. I can't seem to add them either.

Thanks,

How did you verify the zipcode format (for leading 0)?

Did you reopen the .csv file in excel or did you open the file in Notepad?

Hi,

I am trying to import some addresses into UPS worldship software. I need it
in the form of a CSV file. It does not accept excel as an import engine. I
have several addresses with zip codes which start with zero. I am able to
keep the zero in front of the zip code in Excel but when I go to save it as a
CSV file it drops the zero. Worldship then rejects the record since it is
not a valid address. I need to find a way to have a zip code which starts
with a zero saved as a CSV file. Can anyone help?

Thanks,
