Hi All,
Does anyone know how to use the format() function in such a way that is
displays numbers right justified.
For example, see the following query, where I want no decimal places:
SELECT 123456.789 AS X, FORMAT(123456.789, 0), FORMAT(123456.789, 0)+0;
The 1st column is normally displayed as 123456.789
The 2nd column is displayed as string (left justified) as 123,457
BUT the 3rd column, using +0 to force right-justified, cuts off valid data and displays only 123
Hi Cor,
I would use the ROUND() function to do the rounding, as it returns
values with the same type as the first argument.
