Simple question

[BrutalLogiC]

Hi folks

I just want to write "0800" in a cell but it keeps changing to "800"

How do I do this?

 

[Scott Huish]

Custom format the cell as 0000

 

[NBVC]

put an apostrophe in front, like so: '0800 (this will be a text entry though).

Hi,
Try Formating the cell as follows

Format / Cells / Custom
Type will probably have defaulted to General, overtype General with 0000

Hope this helps
