But Rocky, why would you show a decimal point at all if you aren't going to show the decimal places? That doesn't make any kind of sense to me.

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?
