here c# code on decimal.

decimal myvalue = 18.5m; myvalue.tostring().paddleft(5,'0');

edit:

if want more specific can refer page: standard numeric format strings

for example, if wanted show currency or wanting append culture information number represented in correct format depending on culture.
