Hello Razzak,
Thank you - that is what I was looking for. I knew there was a simple
solution.
I am getting a strange output though: the real number stored is 104.31
000.## prints as 104.30
000.### prints as 104.309
This is an unusual situation where the number stored could possibly be 4
numbers to the left of the decimal and 3 to the right (we have never had
more than 2 to the right)
thanks for the help!
Lin
