i found this code on the web and it worked. You pass method decimalFormat a
pattern (in this case 00000). then make a new string with format and the
value.

        DecimalFormat myFormatter = new DecimalFormat("00000"); // Pattern
        String wslo = myFormatter.format(SCREG); // Value 
        System.out.println(SCREG + " " + "00000" + " " + wslo); // Debug

        189 results in 00189

Thanks
