G Guest Apr 12, 2005 #1 how can i make zero appear and print as the value of the first digit in an excel column?
J JE McGimpsey Apr 12, 2005 #2 If you want a fixed number of digits: Format/Cells/Number/Custom 00000 will display 5 places, with the first digit 0 for numbers <=9999. If you want to always display 0, regardless of the length of the number, one way:: Format/Cells/Number/Custom \0General or replace "General" with some other format.
