Formatting string [message #52022]

Hi everyone,

I have a question about formatting a string in IDL. I have a var-string
which contains an integer value (like this '12' or '312').
Unfortunately I need a string with four characters. If the integer
value isn't four characters long, I want some 0's in front of it (like
this; '0012' or '0312'). Is there any simple way of doing this, without
parsing the string?

Thanks in advance!

Erik
