I search characters in the format you want to convert.

Characters in the form of six-digit "0" "000000" and want to convert to.
ex)
Source: "1", convert: "000001"
Source: "2", convert: "000002"

Many ways tried to think, but can not get the results.
Please help me.

Hi,

This should help:

| eval y = tostring( Source ) | eval x="00000" | strcat x "0" y z | eval w=substr(z, -6) | table w

Thank you, and I want to solve the problem.
Use the Format function if it would have been better.
