Exporting customer list cuts off first digit of zipcode
Not a Problem
All of our customer's zip codes begin with '0' and it looks like they're getting removed during the export process.
The same problem
Upon closer inspection, the data we export still has the first 0 in the zipcode. If you open with a plain text editor you can see this. It's the formatting of the spreadsheet editor stripping out the 0. You'll have to consult the user documention or customer support of your spreadsheet program in order to have better formatting.

Interesting. Ok, thanks. I'll see what I need to do to get excel to display the leading 0.
Thanks for looking into it for us

I think if during the import you choose that column to be imported as text instead of a number, it will keep the leading zero.
