Of course, adjusting the fields so that it looks correct in Excel (or other sreadsheet programs which do the same) means that you won't be able to do any calculations on them.
You might be better to import the data as real data without any adjustments and then format the cells (or the whole sheet if you want) to fix the width of the number including leading zeros. That way the display will be correct and the value will be still numeric so you can perform calculations.
Does that help?

xmsetfontunits
XmSetFontUnits(library call) XmSetFontUnits(library call)
NAME
XmSetFontUnits -- A function that sets the font unit value for a display
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Xm.h>
void XmSetFontUnits(
Display * display,
int h_value,
int v_value);
DESCRIPTION
XmSetFontUnits provides an external function to initialize font unit values. Applications may want to specify resolution-independent data
based on a global font size. This function must be called before any widgets with resolution-independent data are created. See the XmNunit-
Type resource description in the reference pages for XmGadget, XmManager, and XmPrimitive for more information on resolution independence.
This function sets the font units for all screens on the display.
NOTE: XmSetFontUnits is obsolete and exists for compatibility with previous releases. Instead of using this function, provide initial val-
ues or call XtSetValues for the XmScreen resources XmNhorizontalFontUnit and XmNverticalFontUnit.
display Defines the display for which this font unit value is to be applied.
h_value Specifies the value to be used for horizontal units in the conversion calculations.
h_value Specifies the value to be used for vertical units in the conversion calculations.
