Here comes a basic example how to set the number style with PHPExcel. In Excel the values will be threatened as numbers 777 but will be formatted with a leading zero 0770 .

// create a new document
$xls = new PHPExcel();

// get the first worksheet
$sheet = $xls->getSheet(0);

// write example values and set number styles of the cells
// 0000 means that values lower than 1000 will be prepended by a 0
$sheet->getCell('A1')->setValue('0777');
$sheet->getStyle('A1')->getNumberFormat()
   ->setFormatCode('0000');

$sheet->getCell('A2')->setValue('0440');
$sheet->getStyle('A2')->getNumberFormat()
   ->setFormatCode('0000');

// write file in Excel2007 format
$writer = new PHPExcel_Writer_Excel2007($xls);
$writer->save('test.xlsx');

  $out = fopen("php://output", 'w'); 
  $flag = false;
   //$result = $orderDetails; 
   foreach($details as $row) {
     if(!$flag) { 
       // display field/column names as first row 
       fputcsv($out, array_keys($row), ',', '"');
       $flag = true; 
     } 
     array_walk($row, 'cleanData');
     fputcsv($out, array_values($row), ',', '"'); 
   } 
    fclose($out); 
    exit();
