prefix a column of numbers with combination of zeros

How can I prefix a column of numbers with a combination of zeros? I have used
"find & replace" using the asterisk, but instead of prefixing the number of
zeros and the existing string it literally enters the replace input. i.e find
33*, replace 0033*, inputs 0033*. I thought that the asterisk would request
the remaining numbers.

Use custom format. 00#. any number entered in the column will be
preceded by two 00
