Hi, I am quite newbie to excel and vb, but trying to make something with them, I need help now though.
My excel contains a Cell value of say "0342345534", and I want to read it like this :

Dim f As String
f = objDepReqSheet.Cells(1,2).Value()

the thing is that f keeps getting the value "342345534" rather than "0342345534".
I tried also :

f = objDepReqSheet.Cells(1,2).Value().ToString() ' This does the same

and:
f = objDepReqSheet.Cells(1,2).ToString() ' This yields System._comObject

How can I make string f get the correct value ?
thank a bunch in advance.
