I wish to put numbers in a cell which commence with a '0'. For example 067
but when I go to the next cell, the number reverts to just 67.

I can get over it by putting an 'O' (capital o), but this then does not Data
Sort properly.

Can anyone help please?


'067 will show as 067.

It will however be text, not a number.

As the guy said you simply type a single apostrophe before the number
you wish to format as text. Eg '456.88. No need to bother with format menus.
