Hi all,

Can anybody shed any light on a problem I am having?

 I want to get a string from an integer, but pad it with a leading 0.
therefore, when a script has:
sayString("0"+intToString(3))
I expect to hear "03".

The only solution I've found is to do something along the lines of:
Let x = "0 "+intToString(3)
Let x = stringReplaceSubstrings(x," ","")

Seems remarkably cludgy to me.  Am I missing a concatenation operator?

Any takers?
Sean.
