Hello Shankar, You can use Format() in VBA.
txttotser.Text = Format(txttotyrs.Value, "00") & Format(txttotmths.Value, "00") & Format(txttotdays.Value, "00") To use Application.Worksheetfunction.Text, it would go like: txttotser.Text = Application.WorksheetFunction.Text(txttotyrs.Value, "00") & Application.WorksheetFunction.Text(txttotmths.Value, "00") & Application.WorksheetFunction.Text(txttotdays.Value, "00") Also your calculator form left the year textbox blank when using the test dates you suggested. There should be a number in that box for the above formula to generate zeroes for the year. If you want to pad a string with zeroes no matter if it's empty, a number, or something else; you could, like this: txttotser.Text = Right("00" & txttotyrs.Value, 2) etc. One more thing - I didn't study how you are calculating your date difference, but VBA has a function called DateDiff for that purpose. Check VBA Help for more info.
