NumberFormat() Mask

2002-04-29 Thread Jim McAtee

I need to display a column of percentages, formatted with 2 digits following
the decimal place and one, two, or three to the left.  I need numbers less
than 1 formatted with a leading zero.  I'm having a time finding an
appropriate NumberFormat() mask to do this.  I'm assuming there is one,
which could well be wrong.

Number   Formatted
1.23  1.23
33.4 33.40
78.5178.51
100 100.00
20.20
37   0.37

Anyone know how to do this?  The leading zero seems to be the catch.

Jim

Try this:

NumberFormat(myval, __0.00)

Thanks, Dave.  Dunno why I couldn't find it.  It ended up being either
___.__ or ___.00.  For some reason __0.00 pads the left hand side with
up to three zeroes.  Go figure.
