...lowing frame: zip 2108 60321 60321 22030 91910 I need row 1 to read '02108'. This forum directed me to formatC previously (thanks!) That usually works but, for some reason, it's not in this instance. Neither of the syntaxes below change '2108' to '02108.' The values in cand_receipts[,1] are of type 'character.' cand_receipts[,1] <- formatC(cand_receipts[,1], width = 5, format = 's', flag = '0') cand_receipts[,1] <- sprintf("%05s", cand_receipts[,1]) Any thoughts?
