I threw this together and it works fine. I had to have the char field
be 7 when the number was set to 6 otherwise I received ORA-06502:
PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
SQL> declare
2 test_int number(6) := 1;
3 test_char char(7);
4
5 begin
6 test_char := to_char(test_int, '000009');
7 dbms_output.put_line(test_char);
8 test_int := 33;
9 test_char := to_char(test_int, '000009');
10 dbms_output.put_line(test_char);
11 end;
12 /
000001
000033
