Using the Format command

I am writing a value into a string using the FORMAT command. The value must
occupy exactly 3 characters,. The value can be in the range -99 to +999.

If I use the format "000", this works fine for the +ive values, but takes an
extra character when the number turns negative.

Any ideas on what the format optuon should be?
