Leading 0 Cell Formatting
Nov 14, 2013How do I format a cell so there is a leading 0 displayed and no little green arrow error message? I'm sure it's something silly and stupid, but I can't get it formatted so.

Formatting Query, Incremental Values With Leading Zeros
Apr 8, 2009I'm tracking weeks by weeknumber in the format YY-WW. At the moment I am entering the weeks manually in a general cell, preceeded by a '. I would prefer to have the sheet work out the weeks for me as we move the sheet every week. I would like to format the initial cell as follows:
09-08 (or '09-08 if I must)
then have the next cell in sequence read 09-09, 09-10, and so on. With the initial week in cell A3, I have tried to accomplish this with:
=LEFT(A3,3)&RIGHT(A3,2)+1
However, this does not work for weeks 01 through 09 because excel kills the leading zero in the second part of the formula, regardless of how I format the cell (format 00-00 does not work.) How can I force Excel it to keep the leading zero in the week number?

5 Digits Per Cell Leading With 0s
Jun 4, 2014I have pasted over 1300 numbers in a list, all of which need to have 5 digits. However, when I pasted the 5 digit number (ie 00003) into the cell, it omits the leading 0's.
Is there any way to get these numbers back to having 5 digits....and if it omitted the 0's, can I put them back all in one fell swoop?

Dec 5, 2013Any easy way to remove all spaces from a cell, both leading and trailing? I find it hard to believe that Excel doesn't have this functionality.

I know that using regular expressions would work but I don't know how to implement this. The column will always be column 'C' in my spreadsheets. I already have other code which is executed when I click a 'Process' button that relies on this column having no leading zeroes for it to work, hence I need to add in code that will make this change.
Retain Leading Zeros Passing Variable To Cell
Mar 14, 2008I want to know how to index a drop down list to be used for calculations.
Up until now I was using
Range("B1").Select 'the cell where the drop down list is
ActiveCell.Formula = SiteID 'site id
But for whatever reason it trims a trailing zero from SiteID when setting it in the second line. SiteID is a VBA string.
Indexing it would work, as would preserving the zero so help on either one is appreciated. Auto Merged Post Until 24 Hrs Passes;Correction, I lied. I was using this line to set it.
Range("B1").Select 'the cell where the drop down list is
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = SiteID 'site id
How To Retain Leading Zeros In A Cell When Combine The Values Of Two Cells?
Oct 25, 2012I have managed to retain leading zeros in a cell by formatting the cell and selecting Number and Custom and adding the maximum number of zeros I want to have in front of the number in the cell i.e. 000002.

Bank Statements - Formatting / Cell Formatting Won't Change?
Mar 22, 2013I'm trying to analyse all of my bank statenments to see where all my money went!! I've got online banking so I thought it would be a relatively easy process of copying and pasting each month into excel.
Well, that in itself was easy, the problem is with the formatting of the financial numbers. Excel doesn't seem to recognise them as numbers, so at the moment I can't do any manipulation with the numbers. I have tried everything such as:
Format Cells > Number > Number and Currency
Copy and Paste Special > Values only
Copying into Notepad and back into Excel
Even if it appears to have changed the numbers to 'number' or 'currency' formatting by right justifying the numbers, if I try to add up the numbers using the SUM function, it doesn't want to know.
For some reason nothing seems to work - what am I missing?
For an example, I have attached a snippet of the spreadsheet with my starbucks transactions.
Keep Leading Zeros?
Oct 8, 2012I have formatted the cells to be '0000' (showing the leading zero) however when my VBA code runs it copies the cell value into a string but when I stop the code running to check the value the leading zero(s) are gone. I can see they are the same on both worksheets in the correct format. I've tried a few others like integer and long but same same.

I need to be able to use formulas on the above numbers to perform look-ups and comparisons(=IF(A1>1000,"Yay","Boo")). My issue is the leading 0. To use formulas the above fields HAVE to be in a number format. Converting to typical number format removes the leading 0. All of the help files I can find show how to preserve the leading 0 either require a set number of 0s or require a set length. Unfortunately my data cannot match those rules. Is there any way I can convert these cells to a number format AND preserve any existing leading 0(s)?

Keep Leading Zero For CSV File
Oct 17, 2011I've been tasked at work with created a daily CSV upload file for a new system. Typically, the format the raw data comes in is .xls and very untidy (direct from SAP).
As such I have created a small macro which tidys up the spreadsheet, and saves it as a CSV. However, I have only just noticed that for the product codes we have which have a leading zero, the .xls file displays the leading zero without a problem, but in the resultant CSV file they are gone.
The macro I use, is as follows:
Code:
Sub SamplesUpload()
'
' SamplesUpload Macro
'
'
Range("A:A,G:G").Select
Range("G1").Activate
Selection.Delete Shift:=xlToLeft
[Code] .....
As you can see, it's very crude (I'm a complete nubie when it comes to this) - the Application.Run "PERSONAL.xlsm!CSV" is a small macro which puts double quote marks around all content of any populated cells in column B and the Application.Run "PERSONAL.xlsm!SaveAsCSV" is a small macro which saves the current sheet as a CSV file - code for those as below:
Code:
Sub SaveAsCSV()
Dim DTAddress As String
Dim FileName As String
Dim FullyQualifiedFileName As String
'Get the path to the desired save location
[Code] ........
Code:
Sub CSV()
Dim arrB As Variant: arrB = Intersect(ActiveSheet.UsedRange, [B:B]).Value
Dim R As Long
For R = 1 To UBound(arrB, 1)
arrB(R, 1) = """" & arrB(R, 1) & """"
Next R
Intersect(ActiveSheet.UsedRange, [B:B]).Value = arrB
End Sub
So, why the leading zeros are not in my CSV file, and how to get them back?
The line which I use to get the leading zeros is:
Selection.NumberFormat = "[>9999]000000;General"
And this is because the only codes which have a leading zero are 6-digits long. Could I maybe add a single ' to the beginning of each cell in column A to make them text, and thus keep the leading zero?
To confirm, the column which contains the product codes is column A.

COUNTIF Ignores Leading Zero's
Nov 12, 2009I have two, technically unique text values, with leading zeros, countif is including them in the count for each.
D17 = 01234
D18 = 1234
formula in column "C"
=IF(D17<>"",COUNTIF('Part Numbers'!B:B,D17),"")
=IF(D18<>"",COUNTIF('Part Numbers'!B:B,D18),"")
both countif's are resulting in 2, whereas they should be 1 since they are textually unique. The cells themselves, on both the source and counting side are formatted as text.

View 9 Replies View RelatedAdd Leading Zero To Month And Day After Split
Jan 5, 2010I'm trying to finish up a little program, but am stuck on getting date values from excel over to a another front end system correctly. The issue is pretty basic - I have a value I call "fulldate" which, for example is "1/5/2010"
I have to move each element of the date to this other system, but if I don't add the 0 before the month and day, it gets pushed over incorrectly (this other front end has three fields which accept: mm dd yyyy. BUT, if one character is entred into the mm field, you need to TAB to get to the dd field. If you enter TWO characters, you CANNOT tab to get there (you'd end up in the yyyy field).
So, all I really need to do is take the value "1/5/2010" and end up with three variables of consistent lengths.
Month = 2 characters
Day = 2 characters
Year = 2 characters
Here's what I'm trying tu use.. .but Day1 = 1, not 01. I've tried using format, but it's just not working how I'd expect.
Leading 0s Being Dropped (XLS To CSV Stream) - VBA
Jul 7, 2013I have a cell formatted as text and I'm throwing it to a variable. That variable is a string. Then I am streaming that data to a CSV using I/O. I am using the "print" command to send the value:
Code:
Print #1, value
=> If the value in the sheet is "0123", the value that appears in the CSV is "123".
=> If the value in the sheet is "'0123" (preceeded with an apostrophe, to indicate literal text), CSV value is "123".
=> If I add the apostrophe (') in VBA directly so that value in the variable is still "'0123", I actually then get "'0123" (apostrophe included!) in the CSV file! Problem is though, that the (') is not the preceeding character but is actually part of the value now!
I'm trying to retain the leading zeros through the file streaming process.

Leading Zero(s) / Custom Format? ()
Aug 23, 2007I'm having trouble with the leading zeros of my ISBN#s; excel keeps chopping them off. I found a topic that discussed this issue, but it won't work for me.
http://www.mrexcel.com/board2/viewtopic.php?t=75303
I can't format them as text because I'm getting them as an isbn with dashes (ie:978-05689-256-7) and when I remove the dashes (even if its formatted as text) excel changes the number to 9780568.9E+12 (or something like that)
I think the solution would be to create a custom format (ie. 0000000000) to preserve the zeros, but I'm having 2 problems:
1. Since the ISBN#'s have 2 different formats (ISBN-10 & ISBN-13) I need to somehow check if the first 3 numbers are 978 then based on that it should be formatted either as ISBN-10 (0000000000) or ISBN-13 (0000000000000)
2. In the post that I linked to above it said that I won't be able to do a vlookup if its custom formatted. Is there any way around this?

Leading Zeros In Variable
Dec 5, 2006what i want to do is input a range of numbers into a cell "L12" from 1 to 450
though when in excel i have formated the cell to "number" so when i want number 001 it turns to 1
what i what to do in the macro is after
Dim sNum As Integer
Sheets("FFR").Select
sNum = Range("L12").Value
if the number 1 is in the cell "L12" the number 1 will be in the variable sNum, though i want the number to be 001!
would i have to count the number of numbers in the variable and then say for example if there is only "1" number in the box, use an "add 00" function to get the number in the variable to be 001! I have an idea what to do though no idea where to start!
