dificulty with While loop

what I am trying to do is check the length of a string and if its not long enough add leading "0" until it is.

(while (< 3 (strlen wns)) (setq wns (strcat "0" wns)))

I'm sure that there's just one little thing that I am missing but I've looked at it to long already.

Or, reverse the items in the less-than function:

(< (strlen wns) 3)

I knew it had to be something simple. Edited by: dbauman2002 on Sep 24, 2009 8:35 AM
