Solution 1

Better use an int, and format it with ToString().

VB

Dim k As String = "00004"
Dim kValue As Integer = Integer.Parse(k) ' kValue = 4
kValue += 1                              ' kValue = 5
k = kValue.ToString("00000")             ' k = "00005"

Solution 2

Don't.
Keep the value as an integer, and convert it to a string when you actually need it as a string, and not before.

VB

Dim i As Integer = 4
Dim str As String = i.ToString("00000")
