I converted a 97 DB to 03. The 03 now drops the leading zeros during import.
How can this be prevented?

Import of what? from what? You need to tell us more details....

When importing a comma delimited file to Access 03, fields that have leading
zero(s) in the data, are dropping all leading zeros during the import.
Hope this helps.

Use an Import Specification to set the data type of the field with the
leading zeroes to Text and not let ACCESS default it to Integer.

A97 I imported to an existing table, not using an Import Spec, and there were
no issues.
A03 apears to not permit the same, and I need to now create (as you said) an
Import Specification.
Great....I'm thrilled...
thank you-

those of us who answer questions in these newsgroups don't have a hand in
designing the Access software, and we don't get paid (by Microsoft or by
anybody else) for answering questions and trying to help other Access users.
if you want to complain about the software, suggest you contact Microsoft.
if you want folks here to volunteer their time and energy to make good-faith
efforts to assist you, suggest you try to refrain from biting the hand that
feeds you.
