Issues when copying & pasting to excel

I have an issue when copying and pasting to excel that just arose in the newer versions.  When I have data in Monarch that contains an employees number, for example, that has leading zeros (0036).  In my Monarch table it look correct.  When I use to copy the information over to excel, if I would paste, special, text, the information would paste into excel correctly (0036).  Now with the current version of Monarch, no matter how I paste or format the number it still shows up as 36 not 0036.  I am curious why it worked in older versions of Monarch, but not the current version.  Any suggestions how I can paste the information correctly? 

Thank you in advance
