Default Excel number format problems

If I want to use a number with 8 digits and a leading zero I've set up a
custom format using 8 zeros. Trouble is as soon as I go out of format option
the cell formatting changes to Greek. The leading zeros are retained but
dissapear when I use the info on the worksheet to merge to labels or other
Word documents.

How do I retain my custom cell formatting ????
