How about:

sNaN(mynumber) ? 0 : ""

Just one more question. The zero works for me, but I’m sure I’ll be asked to 
make it blank. Any hints as to how this could be accomplished? Coming from the 
Flash side of things, all I would be looking to do is change the alpha value of 
the label to zero if the value was 0.


isNaN(mynumber) ? 0 :

If the format function is a custom function you have written, you could just 
have it check whether you like the result it is about to return, and if not, 
return something else. If that is not the case, I believe that you should be 
able to put tests into your binding statement. 

You could test for NaN with something like this:

<mx:Label text="{(myNumber is NaN) ? 0 : PrepForDispl ay.format( myNumber) }"/>

I'm not sure about infinity, but I assume that you can test for this by looking 
for the greatest possible value of the number. Assuming that you have set up 
the variable maxValue to contain that value, you should be able to do something 
like this:

<mx:Label text="{(myNumber > maxValue) ? 0 : PrepForDispl ay.format( myNumber) 
}"/>

If you put the two together, it would look something like this:

<mx:Label text="{(myNumber is NaN) ? 0 : (myNumber > maxValue) ? 0 : 
PrepForDispl ay.format( myNumber) }"/>
