This could be an example of a record I have to work with:

Hi all-
I've got a file that will have multiple columns. In one column there will be a string that is 10 digits in length, but I need to trim the first four zeros to make it 6 characters?
example:
0000001234
0000123456
0000234566
0000000321
output:
001234
123456
234566
