Display zeros to the left of a number
 

Good Morning,

how can i display the zeros to the left of a number? by the way i want the
format of the field to be a number because i have a macro that validates the
value entered in the field is a number.

thank you very much

Use a format of 000000 or however many digits you want displayed.

Right-click the cells in question, then choose "Format Cells" then click
"Custom" and type 000000 (as many zero's as you need)

Hi,
via menu : Format/Cells ( or CTLR + 1 key combination)
Select the Number Tab
In Category , select Custom
In Type, type the number of zero required
eg : 00 = for 1 shows 01
000 for 22 shows 022
Regards
JY
