use formatting from source cell in CONCATENATE function
I created a special format so that leading 0's in a value are printed.
However when using the CONCATENATE function of excel, the formatting is ignored and the leading 0's are dropped. It would be valuable (to me) if the formatting of a cell (number of decimal places, leading zeros, etc was "honored" by the CONCATENATE function. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.
