Zeros At The Front Of Numbers

Nov 6, 2008

i have to copy and paste values from an sap program over to excel spreadsheets, and I usually do about 15 at a time that end up in a column: 15 different cells. The value I am copying are ID numbers that all begin with zero and excel automatically removes the zeros at the front of each number. Is there a formula/process for preventing this.

Is there a formula for adding zero's in front of numbers?

Example:

Remove Front Zeros & Add Space Before Last 2 Characters

Jun 13, 2007

I want to remove the front zero(s) from the front and put a space before the last two letters for the following column of data in Excel:

0001MG
0020MG
0100MG
1000MG

Final result will have this format and the data are right aligned.
1 MG
20 MG
100 MG
1000 MG

The numbers can vary (e.g. 0150MG, 0025MG,etc.) but the arrangement is always the same: four figures for the first 4 characters and two letters for the last two characters.
The format of the cells containing the data is: “General”

My table has 7 columns and these data are in the 5th column in a worksheet called “ProductSummary”. The number of rows for the records can vary from 10 to over a couple of hundred.

How can I use VBA to: 1) automatically select the table range in that worksheet and reformat all the data in the 5th column.

Inserting An Extra 4 Zeros To The Front Of A Number In A Cell

Jun 19, 2006

I need to add an extra four zeros to a number in a cell - in this case an ID number, so that i can do a lookup from another list. Basically what i have is two lists of ID numbers in a field of a database, in one i have the correct display/format, so that a number would look like 000054454545. In the second list however the number is only shown as 54454545, due to differences in the programs which imported them. I would like to know if its possible to use a function or macro in excel to basically insert the four zeros onto the number ie 0000 + 54454545 = 000054454545 so that i can do a lookup of one for the other.

Adding Zeros To The End Of Numbers

Mar 27, 2009

I have a large spreadsheet of employee data saved in a shared network folder so that others can access it. Starting about a week ago, anytime I enter a number in any cell, Excel adds two zeros to the end of the number. For instance, a 1 becomes 100.

When other users open the file on their computer and enter a number, everything is normal - no zeros are added. I'm guessing I inadvertantly enabled a function somewhere along the line, but have been unable to figure out how to undo the function.

Zeros At The Begining Of The Numbers

Apr 2, 2009

I've made an formula to concartenate some numbers:

In A1 the value is 0
In B1 the value is 0
In C1 the value is 6
In D1 the value is 9
In E1 the value is 5

These numbers will change acording to a formula, but:

In F1 the formula is =A1&B1&C1&D1&E1
but in F1 the result will be: 00695
How can i make the result in F1 to be 695 instead of 00695?

Pad Numbers With Leading Zeros

Jul 19, 2007

i have a header row that i want to transfer to a new spreadsheet. here is my exact setup to make it more clear:

Sheet1 - 001 PM Usage$%
Sheet2 - 022 PM Usage$%

i have dozens of these rows, and i want to set up a auto rename for the header row on sheet 2 to rename itself like this:

Dim the value from header row on Sheet 1 (001), and rename the header on Sheet 2 (022), keeping the remaining contents intact (this is important because i want to use the same function for other headers which varies).

what i am doing now is dumping the value of the first cell into a variable, but as it stands it doesnt store 001, it stores 1... stripping the zeros, which makes it more complicated.

i thought perhaps i should dim the first 3 characters in the header as a string, and rename the first 3 characters in header 2, which i think would be the most efficient, but i dont even know if that is possible.

Adding Zeros To The Prefix Or Certain Numbers

Mar 2, 2009

Im basicaly pulling a report wherein the details will have a column as number.

It basicaly should be a three digit number. The tool will have the information as below.

VNO005016017008019020021

But when im pulling out the report into excel, the zeros in the prefix goes away and the report looks like the below

VNO516178192021

I just checked the tools previllages and it seems that we cannot do anyting in pulling the data as it is in the tool.

So wht im trying to do is to save the report in a folder where i have placed a validation sheet which will have references of the parent report.

So when i open the report the reference will pull up the data and in here i would like to add a validation which will add "0" in the prefix if VNO is a 2 digit number or "00" if the VNO is a one digit number.

Retain Leading Zeros In Numbers

Aug 4, 2006

I have ID numbers that sometimes starts with one or more zeros and when i try to paste a string containing ID numbers that starts with a zero, excel converts it to a number thereby deleting the leading zero(s). Is there any way to force excel to keep the leading zero when i paste from the clipboard?

Clipboard.SetText strMyString, vbCFText
Set xlSheet = xlBook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
xlSheet.Activate
xlApp. ActiveWorkbook.ActiveSheet. Range("A2").Select
xlApp.ActiveWorkbook.ActiveSheet.Paste

I have tried setting the format for a column as text using xlSheet.Columns("D").NumberFormat = "text" before pasting to try to force excel to keep the leading zero but the ID# comes out unreadable as "############". I have also tried formatting as "General" and custom formatting the column before pasting but have been unsuccessful thus far. I've seen other programs accomplish pasting numbers with leading zeros but how do you do this?

Add Leading Zeros In Same Column Numbers And Text

Jul 29, 2014

So quick sample of data :

B74
B74
9
94
1
948
B74

So if I have this data in a column you notice they have different length. Now I want my macro to add leading zeros until the length of all occurrences is 4.

I know for numbers you can do a range.numberformat = "0000".

But this won't work for B74 because (obviously) it will not be recognized as a number.

I know in a formula you can do it with the command TEXT. However I do not want to create extra columns I want something to alter it in place just like the numberformat does but then for numbers and text.

Data Validation To Exclude Letters But Allow Numbers Beginning With Zeros

Nov 8, 2008

I am using Excel 07 with Vista, and creating a spreadsheet in which users will be inputting a record into every row.

There is a row that requires a number to be entered, where some of the numbers will begin with 0 or 00 or even 0000. I want to make sure no-one incorrectly enters a letter, however with data validation set to whole numbers, it formats the cell to change an entry of "005667" into just "5667". There is no set length for the field.

The only way to have "005667" is the change the column to text, but then obviously that defeats the whole purpose!

Suppress Zeros In A Pivot Table (search Out Any Zeros And Replace With A Blank Cell)

Oct 12, 2009

with the data in the attached sheet, I create several different pivot tables that need show the count of the information in the columns M:DU. My issue is that the data is sent to me from a third party and the columns contain zeros that cause the counts to inflate.

What I would like to be able to do is run a macro that will search out any zeros in M:DU and replace them with a blank cell.

Unfortunately the number of rows increases with every monthly reporting cycle so the macro would need to be able to accommodate for that.

Imaginary Zeros In Formulas Vs. Real Zeros

Nov 7, 2009

I’ve created a formula for this statistic and I’m happy with the results. Because I’m working with formulas, my only problem is the unwanted zeros. How do I hide zeros that show up automatically (i.e. #3 [blank] and Nov 09-June 10)? I can hide the numbers, but if I enter a zero to one of my future statistics it will not appear and I don’t want that to happen. Is there a way to hide those automatic zeros without affecting my real zeros?

Getting Plus Symbol To Appear In Front Of Appropriate Values

I am trying to create a custom number format that will put a plus sign in from of the value in a cell if the value is positive.
Here is what I have been using:

+#,###;-#,###;"On Forecast"

There have been a few problems with this. Firstly, the values are have two decimals, and I have not been able to adjust it accordingly. Secondly, there are some cells that contain only a zero, and the custom format above changes the zeros to 'On Forecast. Other than these two issues, that custom format works.
