I looked in my notes. I see you're exporting to a CSV. If you don't need a
CSV, my notes say that exporting to a worksheet (XLS) rather than a work book
(XLSW) retains leading zeros

Subject: [RBASE-L] - leading zeros and excel gateway file
Hello, Group:
I am transfering a data file using the gateway command, and two of the fields
which are text and have a leading zero ('0602', '0605').When I use the gateway
command, everything is fine, except the two fields with leading zeros in the
csv file have dropped the leading zeros (which are needed).
Am I missing something or can this be resolved. ? gateway command and sample
file attached
Thanks, Jim,
gateway command and sample file attached::
GATEWAY EXPORT CSV w2upload.csv + SELECT * FROM OHIO_W2_DATA + OPTION
