I have a series of numeric codes that can be up to 5-digits

I'm keeping it as an integer to keep the table small

but when I display it, I need to lead w/zero's, padding the number up to
5-digits

So 6 becomes 00006, and 374 becomes 00374

Right now I'm looping through the length of each string, prepending 0's, but
I'm sure there's an easier way
