jbase manual explained that the INPUT@ statement can be used such that numeric 
input could be formatted on the screen.  I have tried to do this but has failed 
so far.  How can i format the input on the screen as soon as the user finished 
inputing the data? I have tried something like this but failed:
 
INPUT @(2,5) : USER.INPUT "£"
 
This is an extract from the jbase documentation: "Numeric values in variable 
assignments, expressions or CRT, PRINT and INPUT@ statements can be formatted 
using format strings. ThisCOMMAND SYNTAXVARIABLE "{f}{£}{,}{d}{fieldwidth}"
 
Thanks

will produce a formatted output display of the raw data string. Multiple format 
strings can be applied to a variable expression, and if used, will be applied 
from left to right. The syntax of
this construct is as follows:
