I am inserting a table with a field that contains a leading zero if it is one character. IE: 01,02,03...10,11,12. I need the first 1-9 to be a single digit so it will match one of my the fields in the join. I can't change it to a number because of the join. How do I trim off the 0. thank you for your help.
