Hi all, I'd like to know how others write a function like this. TIA Hershelfunction fNumericToMoney put param(1) into tParam if tParam contains "." then put offSet(".",tParam)-1 into tTs put 3 into tC else put the number of chars in tParam into tTs put 0 into tC end if repeat while tTs >3 add 3 tC put "," before char -tC in tParam add 1 to tC subtract 3 from tTs end repeat return "$" & tParam end fNumericToMoney
This is very similar to the function I use, although I would recommend specifying a parameter instead of just using the params. Also, you need to check that the number doesn't already contain any commas or dollar signs, so replace them with empty before you start. Then add a check for the parameter actually being a number.
