Excel cell Formatting
I would try a custom number format (Format menu | Cells | Number tab | Custom
format tab. Use a custom format of 00000 (five zeros to guarantee leading
zeros appear before all numbers <= 99999. Use more or less zeros depending
on your application.

I would like to type numbers including leading zeros while still being able
to do calculations.
Is this possible? What is the format type? When I use text it allows the
leading zero, but of course not calculations can be made on the entries
because it is treated as text.
Thanks in advance.
