I work with spreadsheets that contain list of numbers separated by dashes,
such as 001-117-251. I then have to copy these numbers into a software
program that will not accept dashes, so I would like to remove them using the
Find and Replace feature in Excel. However, when I do this any zeros at the
beginning of the number vanish, and I end up with something like this:
1117251. How do I prevent the zeros from vanishing?
