Thanks, yes I know that, and that what I have already done. But the
problem with this is if I set it to use the Format positive: 00000
and negative: -00000, and the user types in say 99, after they hit
return it shows as 00099, I don't want that unless the user actually
puts in the leading zeros. If they do not put in the leading zeros
then I want it to show 99 like they typed in, but if they do type in
the leading zeros, however many they type in, I want to keep that for
them. I need to keep the format that they type in. So after looking
at this I guess I will have to write my own formatter for this problem.
Thanks.

I hope someone can help me. I have a preference field that allows
users to enter a starting range number, now they need to be able to
start numbers at say 000001 or -000001 for example. Now I can do this
in the preference field because right now it is a string. If I add a
number formatter to it, the next time it is displayed it displays as
either 1 or -1. Is there anyway to set this up so it keeps the
leading zeros?
You can set this in the Formatter's properties in IB.
If you have the inspector palette open in IB when you drag the
formatter into your text field, it automatically selects the
""Formatter" inspector page. Alternatively you can click the text
field, then drop down the inspector panel's popup and select it
yourself ...
