number format
I am typing in telephone numbers to Excel. An example is 01253712345. Excel
removes the leading zero, however when I type in ' before the number, the 0 is displayed. I want to run consecutive numbers, so type in +sum(a1+1) to give consecutive numbers. However, the zero again disappears. How can I apply a custom format to a cell that already contains a +sum formula? Thanks |

Replace your formula with:
=TEXT(A1+1,"0000000000") HTH Jason Atlanta, GA -----Original Message----- I am typing in telephone numbers to Excel. An example is 01253712345.
