Try this: <cfset var1 = 1234>
<cfoutput>#NumberFormat(var1,'0000')#<br /></cfoutput> <cfset var1 = 123> <cfoutput>#NumberFormat(var1,'0000')#<br /></cfoutput> <cfset var1 = 12> <cfoutput>#NumberFormat(var1,'0000')#<br /></cfoutput> <cfset var1 = 1> <cfoutput>#NumberFormat(var1,'0000')#<br /></cfoutput> Notice that NumverFormat pads the numbers with elading zeroes. This is just a test to demonstrate usage.
