Re: Witango-Talk: Default precision?
Wayne is you are using Filemaker then create your own record_ID I would not use the one filemaker creates. It skips numbers and does other strange things. I have always created my own serial number. This also lets me use things like IV1 and have it increment. It functions much more like an identity key then the build in record ID. This may have changed in 7 I have not looked.

Try using @VAR scope$myvarname FORMAT=num:simple-integer when you use the data in the result html Is there a more global approach? I use this sort of thing all over the place and setting a format in every TAF that uses the Record_ID would be a Herculean task. Where did the 0s come from? Does Witango have a default precision of five decimal places? Any reason this changed from T2K?
