Try like this:

=Num(123, '00000') and

=Num(3345, '00000')

In general, Num(FieldName, '00000')

Hi,

You can format numbers using the Num() like below

=Num(123, '00000') and

=Num(3345, '00000')


From Qlik Help file


Example:

The examples below assume the two following settings:

    

Default setting 1

Default setting 2

Number format

# ##0,#

#,##0.#

num( A, '0.0' ) where A=35648.375 returns:

    

Setting 1

Setting 2

String

35 648 375

35648.375

Number

35648375

35648.375

num( A, '#,##0.##', '.' , ',' ) where A=35648 returns:

    

Setting 1

Setting 2

String

35,648.00

35,648.00

Number

35648

35648

num( pi( ), '0,00' ) returns:

    

Setting 1

Setting 2

String

003

Number

3.141592653

3.141592653
