I believe it's Excel eating up the leading zero-s.
Right click on attachment and open with something other than Excel.
Or save the attachment and then edit the saved file.

NAME

       Excel::Template::Element::Formula - Excel::Template::Element::Formula

PURPOSE

       To write formulas to the worksheet

NODE NAME

       FORMULA

INHERITANCE

       Excel::Template::Element::Cell

ATTRIBUTES

       All attributes a CELL can have, a FORMULA can have, including the ability to be referenced using the 'ref' attribute.

CHILDREN

       None

EFFECTS

       This will consume one column on the current row.

DEPENDENCIES

       None

USAGE

	 <formula text="=(1 + 2)"/>
	 <formula>=SUM(A1:A5)</formula>

	 <formula text="$Param2"/>
	 <formula>=(A1 + <var name="Param">)</formula>

       In the above example, four formulas are written out. The first two have the formula hard-coded. The second two have variables. The third
       and fourth items have another thing that should be noted. If you have a formula where you want a variable in the middle, you have to use
       the latter form. Variables within parameters are the entire parameter's value.
