I have a number input box on a vba form for a telephone number. It works fine to input on a spreadsheet, but it removes the beginning zero e.g.
telephone number "01234 234234" is saved as ""1234 234234".

How can I keep the zero?

Will the fill handle fill 1, 2, 3?
Yes! Type 1 in a cell. Hold down Ctrl while you drag the fill handle.
It works thanks - simple really. I just hope that users don't mess around in the spreadsheet in the future and change it! Thanks

How exactly are you transferring the value to the worksheet?
