Use of ToText

[crystal28]

Local Stringvar a;
Local Stringvar b;
Local Stringvar c;

If Isnull({Command.VarX1}) then a:='000' else a:= ({Command.Var1});
If Isnull({Command.Var2}) then b:='00' else b:= ({Command.Var2});
If Isnull({Command.Var3}) then c:='0000' else c:= ({Command.Var3});

In the above formula i need to have each value

that is a,b,c and d to be having 3 or 4 or whatever zeros i have number digits of numbers

Lets say a returns 23 i should have it with 3 digits,that is 023,how do i do this?is totext useful, if so how

Thank you that works,what if the field datatype is a string,.
Totext works for numbers,what if its a string and if the length of the string is 2 and i want 3 digits there.right now i am checking every variable thrua if condition and adding a 0 before..
