Dear All,
I am trying to make a new cluster number based on the cluster number available in the data set for merging with geographical data, but so far without any luck. The new id that I'd like to make should be 8 digits where 2 are string and others are numeric, where 3 digit available in the data set. As for example, i need to replace cluster number 001 with BD2014001.

Any help would be appreciate.
