Number displays incorrectly if the first digit is zero

[MasterLee]

I not blocked you working solution. I just was curious about how renaming an variable could solve the problem.
As you changing:

Code: Select all

new = tostring(text)

to

Code: Select all

new = ('%010d'):format(text)

is joust enough. For formating 10 digit numbers.

@zorg: I'm not ignoring you. I legitimately didn't even see you post on this whole thread until today.
And you've proved your point; yes, your code works. OP should use your code.
