Can someone give me an idea of how to format an integer into a two-digit string as follows:

"07"
"08"
"09"
"10"
"11"
"12"

I want to create a list of strings like:

IMPRINT01
IMPRINT02
IMPRINT03

...etc...

TIA,

---JC

if Len(CStr(myInteger)) = 1 then  
     myString = "IMPRINT0" & myInteger  
else  
     myString = "IMPRINT" & myInteger  
end if

(you don't even really need CStr)

Single line method:

  
mystring = "IMPRINT" & Right("00" & CStr(myInteger), 2)

I love it. CS101. I guess I'd assumed that VB had this sort of thing built in since it's so rich in other doodads.
