Can we suppress leading zero's in LCDOUT?

[sayzer]

I'm trying to print a value in a BYTE sized VAR to a specific place on the LCD.
(a standard 16x2, and using DT's Anypin.php)

I need to get the number right-justified and w/o leading zero's.

I currently have a 0-255 number comming from the ADC on AN0.

(later I will need to do some math and expand the the result to Xnum-per-mV)

I'm currently doing something like this:

MYNUMBER VAR BYTE
MYNUMBER = 0
...
ADCIN 0, MYNUMBER
...
LCDOUT $FE, $83, DEC MYNUMBER

and it prints out "127 " instead of " 127" on the LCD.

My number needs to be printed before (in front of) some text that remains on the LCD during these numeric updates, like " 127-Dingles".

I tried DEC5 and get the digits in the right place but they have leading zero's (instead of spaces)

Is there a way to format my number right-justified and suppress the leading zero's?

At my best guess, this is what you are asking.

You need the print always to the right.
