In this video, I will show you how to add a 0 (or multiple zeros) before a number in Excel.<\/p>\n

When you add a 0 before a number in Excel, it would automatically be removed. For example, if you enter 010, Excel would remove the 0 and make it 10.<\/p>\n

This may be needed if you have data such as zip codes or employee ids and you want to make all these of consistent length.<\/p>\n

You can use Custom Number formatting to specify how long you want a number to be. For example, if you want all the numbers to ve five-digit long, you can make the custom format as 00000<\/p>\n

This will make sure that your numbers are at least five-digit long.<\/p>\n
