how do you write a number in rows or columns with the initial number 0.eg 01234.
It will write the 0 but when you move on the 0 goes & you are left with 1234.

many thanks
regards,

click the cell you want to change click on the format menu and select celll and then scroll down the list and change it to a text cell.

Then any number will keep the leading 0
Alternatively type a ' (single quote) before the number

e.g '012345
