If this is a DB2 database, you can use the DIGITS() function to add the leading zeros.
I'm sure, by now, that someone else has given the solution, but I thought I'd mention it anyway.

Here's an interesting one... I have a text field in a database that contains numbers because of a need to PRESERVE leading 0's i.e. 0001234 0123 12300 Using a regular query, pulling the numbers OUT of the database DROPS the leading 0's in the cfoutput. Almost like cold fusion is treating it as a number not a text field. Is there any way to preserve those leading 0's inside a CFoutput?? Thanks..
