I have a table with a column that is defined as varchar(30)
(MS SQL Server 2005). Probably 99% of the values in the column are
numeric, but the value can also include an alpha character. Most of
the values are three numeric characters , such as 003, 058, or 792.
However, the value can be any number of characters (e.g., 0000885
or CRO549),
The values are correctly stored in the database tables with
the leading 0's intact. When I make my query and display the
results in a <cfgrid> form, if the value in the table has
characters that are all numeric, the leading 0's are stripped. Is
there a way to make the display to not delete the leading 0's?
If the value in the table has at least one alpha character in
it, the leading 0'sare not stripped when displayed.
