Default CSV - text

I have "00012345" in a CSV file. when i open the CSV in excel, it comes up as
"12345".

WITHOUT adding the apostrophe "'00012345" , how else can i get it to display
the zeros in front of the numbers (because it's text, not numeric)?

and the users don't want to go into format-cells each time. any global
settings for this?
