At 12:36p -0500 12/30/2003, Graff didst inscribe upon an electronic papyrus:

on ZeroPad(theNumber)
set theString to ""
if theNumber is less than 10 then set theString to "0"
set theString to theString & theNumber
return theString
end ZeroPad

You could shorten that to:

on ZeroPad(theNumber)
set theString to ""
if theNumber is less than 10 then set theString to "0"
theString & theNumber
end ZeroPad

The last result is always returned.

True. However, I always like to spell stuff out - it makes things clearer when you or someone else has to go back and read the script.
