Default TEXT TO COLUMNS WITH LEADING ZEROS

When I try to use Text To Columns to split a long series of numbers into
several columns of numbers, if one of the numbers starts with a zero it isn't
retained. The zero gets dropped. I tried formatting the original numbers as
text - it didn't work.
Is there a way to split a numerical string into several columns and retain
leading zeroe?
