Hello all,

The simple question is, is there any way in SQLite to format (left align) 
integers? So for example I want to print 1 as 00001, 23 as 00023, 102 as 
00102, etc.

The real issue I'm trying to solve is a sorting one. I run some SQL which 
takes some integers and creates a column for sorting with data like 
following:
1.1.2.3
1.2
1.12.4

It gets sorted as follows, (whereas I want it sorted as above):
1.1.2.3
1.12.4
1.2

Hence if I could left align the printing of the integers it would sort 
correctly, but if there is another way to get the sorting I want, I could 
use something else...

Thanks!

Josh
