Insert the data point into the workspace and open up the formatting window.

In the bottom left-hand corner, there is a checkbox for "Raw Format", check it.

Insert the string, "%02.0f" and hit ok. Go into run mode to confirm.

The "%02" portion of the string controls the amount of decimal points you wish to display. For this instance, the zero will be present for any single digits 0-9. If this portion was "%03", a leading zero would be present until you reached anything above 100.
