How do I force the inclusion of leading zero's?

I want to combine two numeric fields the first is the Consultation Reference (CR) the second is the Quotation Number (QN) - I want to display the two combined as a ten digit block - the first 8 being the CR the last two being the QN so the format should appear as ccccccccqq eg 0001482301 would be the first Quotation for Consultation 14823 the problem is I can't work out how to force the include of leading zero's for each feild set.

Format(YourField, "000000") where the zeros represent the total number of digits you want the number to have!

Format(1234, "000000") for instance will yield 001234.
