Your Zip Codes are being treated as numeric fields on import which
eliminates leading zeros.

Quick solution that should resolve your problem::

Save your worksheet as a CSV file and import that instead of the Excel
worksheet

I successfully imported contacts from Excel, but zip codes were not
formatted
correctly. They were missing "0" when "0" was the first digit. (Zips were
formatted as zip codes in Excel.) What to do?!?!? Thank you!- Hide quoted text -

when you save the xls file using method '083938938 and then save it as
csv file never open it using excel again.
just import the file and you ll find zero. if you want to at al open
it use a notepad. it is excel that removes o if you open csv formated
file.
