on twoDigits(aString)
set aString to "0" & aString
return text from -2 thru -1 of aString
end twoDigits
Tested with
display dialog twoDigits(1)
display dialog twoDigits(11)
display dialog twoDigits(111)
(Note...for this purpose, the result from the third test is probably
right...for other purposes, you have to decide whether long input should be
truncated from the left, or not.)
