Preserving "trailing" zeros from csv file
The only way to preserve zeros after the decimal point is to convert the
number to text before saving the CSV.

Thanks. When I save the file as .csv, close the file, and reopen it,
Excel
still drops the trailing zeros. I'm hoping there is some setting or
default
that I can change to prevent Excel from doing this.

Data/ Import External Data (or rename the .csv as .txt and open), and
specify the columns as Text.

When I open the file in Word, the zero-value decimal points are there.
I can't find where I can change Excel's settings to prevent this from
happening.
Any ideas?
