HOW TO ATTACH YOUR SAMPLE WORKBOOK:Unregistered, Fast answers need clear examples. Post a small Excel sheet (not a picture) showing realistic & representative sample data WITHOUT confidential information (10-20 rows, not thousands...) and some manually calculated results. For a new thread (1st post), scroll to Manage Attachments, otherwise scroll down to GO ADVANCED, click, and then scroll down to MANAGE ATTACHMENTS and click again. Now follow the instructions at the top of that screen.

New Notice for experts and gurus:
Recently, it has become clear that some members (especially newer members) have been confused by "mixed messages" coming from non-Moderators. They are unclear how to react to such requests. Accordingly, we are now asking all members NOT to attempt to moderate threads. From now on, that will be done by forum Moderators only.We continue to encourage the reporting of posts/threads where cross-posting has not been declared, where measures to bypass sheet security are requested, or where abusive language is being used. Generally speaking, it it NOT necessary to report poor titles, spam, lack of code tags, etc, as these are easily spotted by forum Moderators.From now on, those posts made by non-Mods that are attempting to carry out Moderation activities will be deleted.

Cell shows leading zero but physically its not there
So please see my attached workbook.

Columns E/F/H and I show leading zeros
That is also what I need.
However E F and H only show the leading zero but don't actually have it....
So thats screwing up my lookups.

How can I make sure the leading zero's become "physical" like column I?
Thanks.
