I know Chr$(13) gives a character return as well but could someone point
me to where there is a list of all the Chr$ values?

Josh, give the Chr$(36) a try,  36 is the ASCII decimal value for the $
dollar sign.

Chr$(36)+(column_name)

I couldn't find the answer to this anywhere, and the question is
frustratingly simple:

 

I just want to add a dollar sign to the beginning of a label, to
indicate cost. Right now, the number just reads as 111.11, and I just
want $111.11. How do I change the expression on the label to allow for
that? I've tried:

 

"$"(column_name)

\$ (column_name)

\"$" (column_name)

@#$*()^*()^ (column_name)

 

(the last one was pure frustration).

 

Thanks,

Josh
