Default Import .csv (leading zero suppression - not desired)

Is there a switch/option, where I can tell Excel not to
suppress leading zero's from columns imported via a .csv
file, without going through the import text/csv process,
selecting text vs number for each column/field ?

Thanks in advance,
Sincerely,
Ned Fields

Nope.

The choices are rename it to .txt and use the wizard (record a macro when you do
it so you don't have to do it from scratch each time???)

or import it and then change the numberformat to show leading zeros.
