I wrote a small external a while back after Mark Waddington's newsletter

How would a person force a U.S. dollar format on a variable? I'm trying

set the numberFormat of NBalance to "#.00"
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Jeff

Jeff,
The "numberFormat" is actually a global setting, so you would set it and
perform your script as such:
set the numberFormat to "#.00"
put pBalance - (iDPayment + DSUM) into NBalance
Let us know if that doesn't help.

Jeff, try the format function
put format("%1.2f",NBalance) into NBalance
The numberFormat is a system property, and you can't set it for one
variable. It persists (I think) until the current handler finishes.
In any case, it simply limits the decimal places, and will not put
the trailing z
Mark,
That worked great. Thanks, Jeff

Thanks Richard. I had kind of come to that conclusion on my own, but
it's comforting to hear an authoritative opinion on the topic.
Developing such a palette will certainly be grist for a future

On the Mac there is File Juicer. It's shareware, but the limitations are
open enough that you can extract everything within the trial period. Beyond
that, I think it starts watermarking random images, but if you're only
dealing in sound that shouldn't be a problem.

I know that you cannot use commands associated with any Rev Library

Hi all,
I have the beginnings of an application/stack. I've created the menus
which are a group, appear with all cards; but I now want to add a
scrolling text field with it's contents to all of the cards in the
easiest possible manner. How? Involves some more grouping, but I
don't see how
Decided to just copy the field object and paste it into the other
cards, since I decided I didn't want it to appear on absolutely every
one, but I'd still like to know the answer to my question, since I'm
sure this is a common occurrence.
TIA,
