I have a column with 934 lines in it and need to add a leading zero to each
line. How do I do this without adding line by line? |

In cell B1 use this formula ...
="0" & A1 Copy and paste this all the way down your data and it'll do as you ask. HTH. "Fuzy Duk" wrote: I have a column with 934 lines in it and need to add a leading zero to each line. How do I do this without adding line by line? |

How do I add a leading 0 to a group of cells
Hi
One way is to use a helper column like this: ="0"&A2 and fill it down. Once you are happy, copy the whole column of results, then Edit/Past Special/Values to fix them in place. Hope this helps. Andy.
