I have a column of numbers...for example...

Store
1
10
20
212
250

Each store needs to be 4 digits. If it's not 4 digits there needs to be 0s infront of the number until there are four digits? How can I do this automatically?

How to find 2nd largest value in a column?
MAX finds the largest value. =LARGE(A:A,2) will find the second largest. =SMALL(A:A,3) will find the third smallest
You can use the Format() to display leading Zero's. If you want to change the data pemanetly you will need to run an Update query.
=Format([MyField],"0000")
