No. 0x "always" means that a hexadecimal number follows. Ocal is "traditionally" indicated by having a leading zero but no x. Outside contexts where one KNOWS that this convention is or is not followed, it cannot be advised to write numbers with leading zeroes. -- Henning Makholm http://www.diku.dk/students/makholm
