An alternative to Rehan's reply is to use a fixed decimal format for the variable. For example, I have an input form for race times, and I offer NUMERIC 6,2 or NUMERIC 7,3 depending on whether the users are using 1/1000 second or 1/100 second for timing.

I have a form which calculates various real values and then displays them in variable edit fields. (While these are for displaying values only I use them to match up with other variable edit fields which can be altered.)

I would like to be able to format the values however I have not managed to work out how to do this. (Currency values are fine, but not the real values). If anyone can tell me how I can achieve this that would be much appreciated. (Format mask does not do it as that is, as I understand it, for input only.)

Thank you.
