I think you are generating id like 0001/0011/0111/1111 .

use this code:

C#

string strOutput = "";
int idLength = strUIDNo.Substring(3).Length;

if(idLength == 1)
 strOutput = "000" + count.ToString();
else if(idLength == 2)
 strOutput = "00" + count.ToString();
else if(idLength == 3)
 strOutput = "0" + count.ToString();
else
 strOutput = count.ToString();

then assign this value to your textbox.
txtNo.Text = strOutput;
