Hi,

I'd import your data and leave it as is and convert to the format you want
with a formula. Say you imported to column A, put this in b1 and drag down

=REPT("0",16-LEN(A1))&LEFT(A1,LEN(A1)-1)&"0"

I want to specify that if data I am importing is 5556946581 it will return as
0000005556946580. It will add 0's to the beginning to make the length 16
characters long and also change the last number to 0 if it is a number from
1-9
