Asger: Thanks, the first suggestions worked after I changed the Decimal Places property back to Auto from zero.

Or =int(YourField) & format(0,".#") First example gives decimal sign fixed as "." like: ?int(10.78) & "." --> 10. Second example gives decimal sign as "." or "," dependent on your country setting like: ?int(10.78) & format(0,".#") --> 10. or 10, Asger -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] På vegne af Rocky Smolin at Beach Access Software Sendt: 4. februar 2009 23:07 Til: 'Access Developers discussion and problem solving' Emne: Re: [AccessD] Decimal point with no places to the right The field is a double but the user doesn't want the decimal places to display. The format example has the value and the mask as the two arguments for the format. But in this case the value is in a bound text box on a continuous form. So I can't use the Format on the control source. So not sure how to get the text box to show the whole number plus the decimal point without the decimals fractions.

Too true. Works for integer types, though not sure if Rocky specified integers. -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Gustav Brock Sent: Wednesday, February 04, 2009 1:46 PM To: accessd at databaseadvisors.com Subject: Re: [AccessD] Decimal point with no places to the right Hi Lambert > Your format string shows one decimal place (as I would expect it to) Yes, but none for an Integer - that I understood was the issue. /gustav >>> Lambert.Heenan at aig.com 04-02-2009 19:23 >>> Gustav?
