Help with exporting needed. I am trying to export client name and zip code only. We are in MA so most of our zip codes start with a ZERO. When I export to CSV it drops the zero. Any way to export as text so it keeps the zero? I'm pretty familiar with Excel but can't get it do what I need.

    I believe you can format the column with "Format Cells>Special>Zip Code".

    If not: Add an extra column with =TEXT(N#, "00000") where N is the column and # is the row number of the cell you want to change. Copy this to each row and it will convert all digits to length 6.
