Prevent Excel truncating leading zeros for HYPERLINKS

Please note this question is for hyperlinks so do not mark it as duplicate without actually looking at the problem. I know we can prevent excel from truncating leading zeros by setting the cell format to text. That works. However, when I add a hyperlink and in its text to display I add a value like 00111, the hyperlink name is truncated.

Is there any way to prevent that?

instead of formatting the cell as TEXT, how about turning the number into text first and then turning it into a hyper link.
