Formatting Number as Text
 

-----Original Message-----
I am populating cells in an excel spreadsheet from VB. I
use the NumberFormat property on the Columns collection to
format numbers and dates but I need to specify that a
column is text. I have a customer with an expense code
that sometimes starts with leading 0's (i.e. 00125330).
Is there an expression I can use to force it to format as
text on the NumberFormat property or a different way
entirly? I tried using "Text" because I saw examples of
using "Gemeral" to let it autoformat, but that didn't
work. I have also tried putting in a leading space but
that didn't work either.

Thanks
