Default Remove leading zeros

We are uploading data from another application to a .txt file and then
opening the .txt in Excel 2003. The data is employee numbers, which we are
copying and pasting into our learning management system. In the LMS we need
the number without the leading zeros. Formating as number does not work. Do
you know a formula we could use to remove the zeros when the number of
leading zeros varies? This is an example of the data:
0026278,
0067405,
0000042,
0108500,
