I have values on a spreadsheet that I want formatted to a 4th decimal place, then I want to copy those values (with 0's showing) and paste them as text into another spreadsheet.
Value 1 appears as 0.008924 but should show as .0090
Value 2 appears as 1.04 but should show as 1.0400

I have 4 columns of data and 3 of them are numeric entries, the sheet the values are coming from can be formatted if needed but that formatting would need to be done via this script. Below is what I'm using to populate my new worksheet.

wsMeas: Holding original data
wsData: new document

Code:
Windows(wbName).Activate
    feat_data = wsMeas.Range(wsMeas.Cells(1, 2), wsMeas.Cells(lastr + 1, 2)).Value
    nom_val = wsMeas.Range(wsMeas.Cells(1, 3), wsMeas.Cells(lastr + 1, 3)).Value
    p_tol = wsMeas.Range(wsMeas.Cells(1, 4), wsMeas.Cells(lastr + 1, 4)).Value
    m_tol = wsMeas.Range(wsMeas.Cells(1, 5), wsMeas.Cells(lastr + 1, 5)).Value
wsData.Activate
    wsData.Range(wsData.Cells(2, 1), wsData.Cells(1 + lastr, 1)).Value = feat_data
    wsData.Range(wsData.Cells(2, 2), wsData.Cells(1 + lastr, 2)).Value = pn_name
    wsData.Range(wsData.Cells(2, 3), wsData.Cells(1 + lastr, 3)).Value = "Variable"
    wsData.Range(wsData.Cells(2, 4), wsData.Cells(1 + lastr, 4)).Value = "Bilateral"
    'wsData.Range(wsData.Cells(2, 5), wsData.Cells(1 + lastr, 5)).Value = nom_val & " +" & p_tol & " / -" & m_tol
    wsData.Range(wsData.Cells(2, 6), wsData.Cells(1 + lastr, 6)).Value = nom_val
    wsData.Range(wsData.Cells(2, 7), wsData.Cells(1 + lastr, 7)).Value = p_tol
    wsData.Range(wsData.Cells(2, 8), wsData.Cells(1 + lastr, 8)).Value = m_tol
    wsData.Range(wsData.Cells(2, 14), wsData.Cells(1 + lastr, 14)).Value = "No"
    wsData.Range(wsData.Cells(2, 15), wsData.Cells(1 + lastr, 15)).Value = "No"
    wsData.Range(wsData.Cells(2, 19), wsData.Cells(1 + lastr, 19)).Value = op_nam
    wsData.Range(wsData.Cells(2, 20), wsData.Cells(1 + lastr, 20)).Value = "100 Percent"
    wsData.Range(wsData.Cells(2, 27), wsData.Cells(1 + lastr, 27)).Value = "CMM"
