Conditionally remove first character from string

Hi,

 

I have a bunch of Unique ID's, but for some reason my source system adds a 0 to the beginning of the string if the string is shorter than 7 numbers.

How can I write a condition for; If first character is 0, then delete first character?

Thanks

May be like this

If(Left(StringField, 1) = 0, Mid(StringField, 2), StringField)

Mid(Your_field,2)

 

if(left(your_field,1)=0,mid(your_field,2),your_field)
