formatting to left pad column with zeros

[TDouglassAFG]

Hi,

I have a tabular model in Visual Studio that creates a cube in analysis services for Power BI to read.  I have the same source table in two .bim's/solutions and the same calculation 

= format('Product'[Product_Code],"00000") & " - " & 'Product'[Product_Name]

However, the format is not working in one of them.  The product code is 2800.  It should be 02800 with this command.  Is there a different way I should be writing this now?  The other .bim was written over a year ago and still works ok.

Could you please check whether the data type of field is Text type? If yes, please set its data type as numeric type if the data is all numeric...
