How do I display the number 007? It keeps changing to 7
I need to have zeros in front of my numbers, but the worksheet keeps removing
the zeros. I need it to display 007, 042. etc |

One way is to type an apostrophe before the first zero......it won't show,
but changes the value to TEXT and displays the leading zeros.......... Vaya con Dios, Chuck, CABGx3 "Amy" wrote in message ... I need to have zeros in front of my numbers, but the worksheet keeps removing the zeros. I need it to display 007, 042. etc |

Methods......
1. Enter an apostrophe before typing the number. 2. Pre-format the cells as Text before entry. 3. Use a Custom Format of 000 The first two will be text and not calculable. The third will not change the value of the numbers, formatting only.
