I have a text file I open up in excel. One of the columns has numbers
with leading zeros. I change the format to text and I save it as a csv
file. Then when I import the file into another program the zeros are
gone. I also have some numbers like(65110231147009) and when I import
the file into another program, they end up like (6.51E+13) which turns
the number into (65100000000000). I also reopened the spreadsheet after
saving it and they are not correct. Is this because I am saving the
spreadsheet as a csv? If so how can I keep the data correct? I have to
use csv or xml to import the data into another program. I am using
excel 97.

TIA
