I need to create a field on a form that is 7 characters in length, and zero
fills from left to right for entries less than 7 characthers. Can anyone
please help me

Type 7 zero's in your format property that will fill the characters that are
not filled. You might have to build in some validation though depending on
the datatype you use. Integer can do the job but you'd have to test it.
