dropping zeros..followup

S

scott

I got a little help on this but I am still in need of help.

I have a file that I am comparing with a customer file.

The customer file has all the codes without 0's like this.

123456
111111
222222

Our report has it with 0's like this.

0123456
000111111
00222222

I need to compare these 2 fields to bring back which codes
do not match.

I am thinking the easiest way is to drop the 0's in front
of our report then compare..

1. How do you drop leading 0's?
2. Is there an easier way to do this?

The field contains TEXT and numbers...some of the codes are like
this.

D123456 and E456789

Thanks
Scott
