Hi all,
I'm having a problem with results being returned from a data source, it's returning the right value but without the zero's "0" in front. I've searched through google for "padding zero's in xpath" and i've only been able to find one thing but I can't tie into my xpath query. Software being used: Infopath 2003 with a Access 2003 Database. My xpath query: xdMath:Max(dfs: dataFields/d:Property/@Claim_Number) + 1
For a little background, there are say 4 claim numbers in the table in the database, 0001, 0002, 0003 and so on, I use the Max function to call on the next number in the sequence.
I found information on this website: http://www.xqueryfunctions.com/xq/fu...to-length.html
But it seems to be XQuery something different?
Can anyone helps or suggest a different approach?

Here's a clever but simple solution that a colleague came up with - just add a whole bunch of zeroes to the front of the value and then shorten it again to the right length!
E.g.
substring(conca t("0000",/My/Value),
(string-length(concat(" 0000",/My/Value))-3))

This may be a question more directed to Excel, but I'm using PHP to
generate a CSV to be imported into Excel, so maybe the solution is
there. So, sorry for crossposting.
Anyway, I'm generating a text file, a CSV, that contains addresses
from a database. Zip codes that have a leading zero (eg: 01234) has
that 0 in the database, and it appears to have it when it's being
inserted and written to the text file, but when you view it in Excel...

Hi
I use reponse.contenttype = "application/vnd.ms-excel"
So the browser will show the data in excel format, but for
some fields I use leading zero's, which truncated by the
browser, at this content type.
If I concat a "'", or other none numeric char, the problem
is solved inconsistently!!!
But even this solution is problematic - is there any
solutions, explanation?

Hello All,
None of the solutions I have found in the archives seem to solve my
problem. I have a date column in my tables (stored as a char(10))
which I would like to append a leading zero to for those dates that
start with 9 or lower.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

I'm pasing a zip code as a prameter to an Access stored procedure. In
Access the parameter is a text data type. It works for non-leading zero
zip codes but, apparently access (or ASP) is converting it to a value
first (dropping the zero) then sending that to my SP. Even if I use
cStr() to be sure the parameter is sent a string it still seems to drop
the leading zero. Any thoughts? Note: It needs to be a string for

Hello,
I'm trying to export a query containing contact information, including a
field. Some zip codes have one or two leading zeros, for example,
San Juan, PR (00927) and Springfield, MA (01104). When I export to a comma
separated value (.csv) file, the zip code for San Juan becomes "927" and for
Springfield becomes "1104". How can I prevent the leading zero(s) from being
trimmed in the exported .csv file?
Because the table contains...

In my limited testing with FF 2, IE 6 and Opera 9 when I divided a
positive integer, that is less than 100, by 100 I get a leading zero in
front of the decimal point.
For example 80/100 gives 0.8
This is what the server app is expecting a leading zero (it does indeed
fail without it). Do I need to do anything to ensure the leading zero is
there?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
