You probably need to do that in two steps: 1) Make sure, that all numbers have the correct number of digits 2) glue everything together 1) Use [makefilename %02d] to create a two digit symbol (<- yeah, the output is a symbol!) with leading zeros from the incoming float. For the year you need [makefilename %04d] in order to create a four-digit symbol. You get the idea. 2) Use [pack s s s s s s] to put everything into a single list message. Then you get rid of the spaces with a message box like this: [symbol $1$2$3$4$5$6( Roman _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
