Given the following code fragment:



D ImgCnt S 3 0

D ImgCntc S 3a



C Do 999

C Eval ImgCnt = ImgCnt + 1

C Eval ImgCntc = %Char(ImgCnt)

C Enddo





If I displayed both of these variables on a screen they would look like
this:



IMGCNT = __1



IMGCNTC = 1__



What is the easiest way to pad IMGCNTC with leading zeros?



IMGCNTC = 001

IMGCNTC = 002

.

IMGCNTC = 085

IMGCNTC = 099

.

IMGCNTC = 134

Etc.







Thanks!
