Default enetering fed ex tracking # in cell

Hello,
I cannot find a way to enter the 13 digit tracking # in a cell, I have tried
custom, general - it always replaces the last 6 #'s with zeros? Any advice?

You sure the number is only 13 digits?

Excel will use15 digits then turn everything after that to 0's.

I have not heard of a 13 digit number being truncated in this manner.
