mysql format number

Hi,

I want to know how can I format a number like this:

year = 2012
month = 7

it should be:

year = 2012
month = 07

then bill_code = 201207 (as int)

choose whichever answer you like --

1. do it in your front end language, not in mysql

2. use SMALLINT(2) with ZEROFILL

3. don't build a column from two other columns
