Trailing 0's being stripped

Question

I have an application that allows folks to enter version numbers and they should be able to enter 1.10 but that 0 is getting stripped. This is a custom tabular application and I am using collections. The database column is a VARCHAR2. How do I prevent those trailing 0's from being stripped? Below is the code to create the collection, the populate it.
declare
   la_cks wwv_flow_global.vc_arr2;
begin
   if htmldb_application.g_fcs.count > 0 then
      la_cks := htmldb_application.g_fcs;
   else
      la_cks := htmldb_application.g_f07;
   end if;
   htmldb_collection.create_or_truncate_collection('UPDATE_DTL');
   htmldb_collection.create_or_truncate_collection('INSERT_DTL');
   for i in 1..htmldb_application.g_f01.count
   loop
      if htmldb_application.g_f01(i) is not null then
         htmldb_collection.add_member(
             p_collection_name => 'UPDATE_DTL'
            ,p_c001 => htmldb_application.g_f01(i)
            ,p_c002 => htmldb_application.g_f02(i)
            ,p_c003 => htmldb_application.g_f03(i)
            ,p_c004 => htmldb_application.g_f04(i)
            ,p_c005 => htmldb_application.g_f05(i)
            ,p_c006 => htmldb_application.g_f06(i)
            ,p_c007 => la_cks(i));
      else
         htmldb_collection.add_member(
             p_collection_name => 'INSERT_DTL'
            ,p_c001 => htmldb_application.g_f01(i)
            ,p_c002 => htmldb_application.g_f02(i)
            ,p_c003 => htmldb_application.g_f03(i)
            ,p_c004 => htmldb_application.g_f04(i)
            ,p_c005 => htmldb_application.g_f05(i)
            ,p_c006 => htmldb_application.g_f06(i)
            ,p_c007 => la_cks(i));    
      end if;
   end loop;

Please edit your post so that the code extract is wrapped in *\...\* tags as described in the FAQ. That will make it easier to read and hopefully stop the subscripts being converted into icons...
Note that you should always provide the information requested in the forum sticky threads:
- APEX version?
- DB version and edition?
- Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener)?
- Browser(s) used?
