How do I Format a number with leading zeros in PHP

I want to be able to have a variable with a fixed number of digits. If the variable is less than the fixed number of digits I want to add some leading zeros. For example if I have a number 7654321 and I want the fixed number of digits to be eight the resulting variable should be 07654321

Is there a PHP function for that?

Washington DC SQL Server

Washington DC SQL Server computer consulting company needed-  We have a legacy database done in SQL Server.  It used to be in SQL Server 2000, but we recently tried updating it to SQL Server 2005 and then SQL Server 2008, but now it doesn’t work properly!  We are located in Washington DC, but would be fine working with a company in Montgomery County, Maryland or in Virginia.  As far as working on SQL Server Washington DC has a good number of computer consultants doesn’t it?  Oh, and we are a small company that works with the folks on capital hill-  Our office is close to Dupont circle.  Help us please!

Database Management with MySQL and PHP

Hello CCD:
Our organization is looking for some help with MySQL and PHP. We have a database of clients and potential clients- We would like to publish some of the information in this database on the web so that our team members across the country can easily access it. Is this the sort of computer consulting that you do? I guess you would call it database management.

P.S. Do you also do web development work in Microsoft SQL Server? We also may have a need for that.

Transforming from Microsoft Access to PHP MySQL

CCD:
Our company has a database that was done in Microsoft Access. We are interested in finding a computer consulting company in the Washington DC area that can convert the data to a MySQL database and use the PHP programming language to make the data available to our clients. Does CCD have expertise in Microsoft Access? And how about PHP and MySQL? I see that you are located in Maryland- That is certainly close enough to Washington DC for us. Thanks,

Web development using php

Hello,
We have a system that keeps track of homeowners. It is programmed in php. Does your company work in the area of web development? And do you have people that know php? Computer programming is not our thing! I see that you are in Maryland, just outside of Washington DC. That would be perfect for us b/c we are located in Germantown. Thanks, hope to hear from you oon!
