How to display a numeric field showing all 5 characters.
I want to enter my UPC codes in worksheet. This is a 5 character cell. I
want this to show the zeroes in front of the number such as 00001. I only want it for this one cell though, not the rest of the cells. thanks |

Format the cell as Text. Then anything entered in the cell will
display as typed. Or use the custom format 00000 if the number must remain as a number. Since it's a 5-digit code, you could also use the ZIP Code format under Special in the Format list. |
