ti have completed a worksheet that includes two columns of numbers in the
format 0001 - 1500 and 00000 - 99999. when i try to search for a given
number, even though it is clearly on the worksheet in fron of my eyes, excel
cannot find the number and shows a box "excel cannot find the data you are
looking for".

any help with this confusing problem would be very greatly appreciated,
many thanks,
