Add leading zeros to data frame label

Geographic Information Systems Asked on March 10, 2021

This is in ArcMap 10.0.

When using data frames to label UTM coordinates, I’m sometimes asked to add leading zeros (e.g., 590 would become 00590) to the tick or line labels of the data frame. I’d like to automate this. I’d be happy using an appropriate style, exporting and editing an attribute table, or editing a shapefile–but I can’t figure out how to even access this data outside of ArcMap.

Possible solution:

I created bookmark in layout view and exported it into shapefile. Computed coordinates of 5 points on the left edge using Excel and extent XMin. Labelled them: enter image description here
