Hi,

Just convert your string into a double and it will be fine!

but I need a string type variable only as output

Convert it to Double/Int will remove the leading 0, as mentioned by @melanie. With tostring() you will get back the number in string

Hi

It’s as simple as this

Use a expression like this

str_output = str_input.ToString.TrimStart(“0”c).ToString

Where str_output is of type string variable
