Keeping leading zeros with find and replace

问题


I'm using Excels find and replace to remove hyphens from long numbers. They are mixed between birth dates and organisation numbers that have been filled with leading zeros to have the same number of characters. There are a LOT of numbers so find and replace seems to be the simplest solution to remove the hyphens. But when i use find and replace the leading zeros are truncated and I have not found a solution to keep them afterwards.

For example i have:

19551230-1234
01234567-8901

and after find and replace I have

1,95512E+11
12345678901

but want the format as:

195512301234
012345678901

So I want to keep the leading zeros after find and replace. I've tried formatting the cells as text, but it doesn't work as the find and replace automatically truncates the leading zero and keeps the remaining characters, so the zero is completely removed. I am using Excel 2010, but answers for several versions are appreciated.

Just put a single quote in front of your leading number - ex. '01234 It will take the number as-is literally and the quote will not show in the field.
