ActionScript 2.0 :: Add Kerning (letterspacing) In-between The Numbers In A Date Counter?

is it possible to add kerning (letterspacing) in-between the numbers in a date counter?

For example lets say I have a date counter that counts the months dates and I have two circles sitting side by side not overlapping. How would i go about adding a space in-between the numbers to have the number on the left in the left circle and the number on the right in the right circle? Someone mentioned using strings but how would I go about doing that?

Here is the current code that I am using:

Code:

Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
now = new Date();
nDate = now.getDate();
displayDate = nDate;
}
