This will generate a list of the filenames from root000.dat up to
root999.dat.

(StringJoin["root", ToString[#1], ".dat"] & ) /@
  Table[PaddedForm[i, 3, NumberPadding -> {"0", "0"},
    SignPadding -> True, NumberSigns -> {"", ""}],
   {i, 999}]

This uses PaddedForm with appropriate arguments to generate the 3-digit
numbers, which is documented in the Further Examples section of PaddedForm
in the Help browser.
