Works for me: mysql> create table t ( a char(2) ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.08 sec) mysql> insert into t values ('02'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.03 sec) mysql> select * from t; +------+ | a | +------+ | 02 | +------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) Did you add the single ticks around the 02 in the INSERT statement?
