Hi all,

I am reading a unique record (from database) which has a field NUMBER which
is defined as I2.. I would like to extract this value somehow using a SETVAR
<filename> or something like that.. !! Following is the requirements..

The NUMBER could be a 1digit, 2 digit, 3digit or 4 digit or 5 digit numeric
number. I would like to extract this number into a 5 digit numeric number
prefixed with leading ZEROES upto the 5th digit irrespective of whatever
value is there in that field.. For ex : if the value in field NUMERIC is 375
then I would want my extract to be 00375.

My final goal is to have the following :
SETVAR FILENAME "PF" + "5 digit numeric number with leading ZEROES coming
from NUMBER" ..
With the above example I would like to have the FILENAME having value
"PF00375"..

Is there any ASCII definitions or leading ZERO populator ? If so how do I do
it ?

Thanks in advance for all your flooding replies.. !!
Regards
Raghu..
