I need to be able to add a leading zero to a number ONLY if the number is a single digit ex. 1 needs to be 01 but 12 can stay as is. Any ideas out there?

Will this work? The SerialIncrement function is targeted at TEXT fields, not number fields.

It will work, provided the result is set to type Text (numbers do not have leading zeros).

I should add that this will also work with a Number result (provided it's not formatted as Decimal), since Filemaker is pretty tolerant regarding what can be entered into a Number field. But eventually, if there are leading zeros then the real type is Text, and it would be better to stick to that.
