Yea I can do that but then I have to build processes to do all the converting...
I want to read this data live.

Anyone else have any ideas?

Thanks

One Last thought, don't know if I should enter a new topic...

I have three labels I want to label.  Right now I am using an Offset to push 
one above, and one below (UC, CC, LC) with offsets.
And as such these are three separate layers in my app
I tried to combine all three into one map file but it only labels the first one 
(I copied the original code in the original email and simply changed the label 
field)(no matter what I do it just labels the first one it reads)

Can I combine these into one and still have them label on three different rows

Value 1
Value 2
Value 3

Can I concatenate like this?

LABELITEM  'Value 1' & 'VALUE 2' & 'VALUE 3'

But how would I specify they are supposed to create 3 lines???

THANKS

It is always an option to create a string column and then populate it with your 
numbers formatted the way that you want them to appear.  I am sure that you 
realize this, but it is something that I have done in the past.

Is there any way to eliminate the decimal places here...I looked online but was 
unable to find anything.

Thanks

The fields I am labeling are numeric...so I get this

3434.000000000000
1232222.000000000000

I am looking to drop all the extra decimal places...

Or maybe set it to keep two

3434.00

THANKS
