Hi all,

Could i please ask for some assistance

I am looking for a formula to show "0"'s at the beining of a 15 digit number

ie
2315957 need to show as 000000002315957

The number itself will increase over time so not as simple as adding 8x "0" to the formula

Many thanks

What is =ROMAN(40) in Excel?
The Roman numeral for 40 is XL. Bill "MrExcel" Jelen's 40th book was called MrExcel XL.
ExcelRoy, Good afternoon.

Try to Format the Cell as --> Number --> Custom ---> 000000000000000 ie. Zero 15 times

This is an option for you?

Please, tell us if it worked for you.

I hope it helps.

Greetings from Brazil
