I would like to use the values 001 & 02 in two of my assigned variables. I have the variables listed as integers and am trying to assign the values in Access' SQl. I have: firsttwo, nextthree as integers, and have firsttwo = "02" and nextthree = "001". Access will not allow me to use firsttwo = #02#. How do I assign these values where access will keep the zeros in the front? Once the variable is passed, it reads as firsttwo = 2, and I need firsttwo = 02.
