I want to make all the numbers I type appear as four
digits ex: 0001, 0002. I know I can use the "test"
formatting option, but I wanted to treat the cell contents
as numbers for formulas used elsewhere. I can't figure
out how to do with using the "custom" formatting option.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks.

Create this custom number format: 000#

HTH, Doug

But Custom Format as 0000 seems to do what is needed. Any number of digits
in an input are expanded to at least 4 figures.
