Hi all,
I have a potentially silly question and need your help.

Procedure abc is

vDept     table.column%type;  <====== varchar2(80)
 Begin     ........
                vDept := func_t(par1, par2);


                ......

                ......

End;

Function returns 057, however when it gets assigned to vDept it turns into 57. How do I preserver zero?

Thanks,
Regards,

Eugene Pipko
