Using excel NumberFormat in coldfusion
Hi All - As suggested by a couple of coldfusion developers a weeks ago, I am using xml to generate excel sheets from coldfusion. I am stuck with the following issue. Style ss:ID=s71 Borders Border ss:Position=Bottom ss:LineStyle=Continuous ss:Weight=1 ss:Color=#00/ Border ss:Position=Left ss:LineStyle=Continuous ss:Weight=1 ss:Color=#00/ Border ss:Position=Right ss:LineStyle=Continuous ss:Weight=1 ss:Color=#00/ Border ss:Position=Top ss:LineStyle=Continuous ss:Weight=1 ss:Color=#00/ /Borders NumberFormat ss:Format=#,##0/ /Style The number format within Style tags above has pound signs which Coldfusion does not like. Escaping them does not produce the desired result. Can anyone suggest a work around for this issue? ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:346616 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm

Easy NumberFormat Question
Hello, Is there a number formatting function that will show a maximum of two decimal places when a remainder exists and no decimal places if it doesn't exist? Right now I'm using numberformat and it's showing two decimal places when there is no remainder. I'd just like for those cases to show up as X, not X.00. The last time I did something like this, I did an if statement to check for the remainder and formatted correspondingly. I think that was CF 5. Does a function exist for this? Thanks in advance!

Re: Easy NumberFormat Question
Sierra Bufe submitted this udf to cflib.org:
function RoundIt(num,digits) {
var i = num;
// multiply by 10 to the power of the number of digits to be
preserved
i = i * (10 ^ digits);
// round off to an integer
i = Round(i);
// divide by 10 to the power of the number of digits to be preserved
i = i / (10 ^ digits);
// return the result
return i;
}
cfoutput
div#roundit(10,2)#/div
div#roundit(10.258,2)#/div
/cfoutput
seems to do what you want.
Also seems consistent with James' answer to your question.

Sierra Bufe submitted this udf to cflib.org:
function RoundIt(num,digits) {
var i = num;
// multiply by 10 to the power of the number of digits to be
preserved
i = i * (10 ^ digits);
// round off to an integer
i = Round(i);
// divide by 10 to the power of the number of digits to be
preserved
i = i / (10 ^ digits);
// return the result
return i;
}
cfoutput
div#roundit(10,2)#/div
div#roundit(10.258,2)#/div
/cfoutput
seems to do what you want.
Also seems consistent with James' answer to your question.
Hello,
Is there a number formatting function that will show a maximum of two
decimal places when a remainder exists and no decimal places if it
doesn't exist? Right now I'm using numberformat and it's showing two
decimal places when there is no remainder. I'd just like for those
cases to show up as X, not X.00.
The last time I did something like this, I did an if statement to
check for the remainder and formatted correspondingly. I think that
was CF 5.
Does a function exist for this?
Thanks in advance!
Sincerely,
Andrew

RE: Easy NumberFormat Question
Thanks guys. I checked cflib but missed this. Sincerely, Andrew Welcome.

RE: numberformat
sorry, they were obvious gestures at what we thought was fairly straightforward.the function wont do that basically, not from what i can tell.but, in order to do so, you would have to create a value that is .07 like this... cfset theNumber = 7 / 100 and then you can strip the leading zero off... cfoutput#right(theNumber,3)#/cfoutput but that would only work if you knew the results were going to look like 0.07, the actual value of 7 / 100 in cfmx. there are a myriad of ways to do this, im sure, but you could start here... i couldnt get the mask thingie to work and not show the leading zero?? anyone?? tony -Original Message- From: Robert Orlini [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 17, 2003 3:43 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: numberformat Thanks.

RE: numberformat
If you're using CF 5 or later you can use this function:
cfscript
function maskit(myNum) {
var aNum = myNum / 100;
var newNum = numberFormat(aNum,.00);
return (replace(newNum,0.,.);
}
/cfscript
Then in your code, #maskit(7)#
Strangely, on my computer, numberFormat(aNum,.00) will STILL put a leading
zero on the number -- that's what the replace is for in the return

RE: numberformat
nahh...the quotes around divideByHundred are not necessary, in fact
will throw an error.
the correct format for this bit of code would be
cfset divideByHundred = NumberFormat('0.07','.__')
but that would give you 0.07, not good.
the way i posted in my previous email is one way, tho'

Another NumberFormat question - brackets for negative numbers

Re: Dollarformat -vs- Numberformat
Thanks for the reply, I ended up finding the cluprit in a difference of SQL statements... one page had select round(line.price * line.rec_qty) and another had just sum(line.price * line.rec_qty)... the difference ended up being on the SQL site of things.

numberformat for SQL ?
Does SQL have something like the CF numberformat ? I need to export a large amount of data to a text file, one of the fields is numeric and I need to left zero fill 5 digits. In CF I would just do this: numbefromat(myfield, 0) I could use CFFILE but its a huge amount of data and it usually ends up killing the server and I would rather not do it in chunks.

NumberFormat() Rounding Up
Hello: I have the NumberFormat() func rounding up a number. The result is one integer higher than the original integer. Example: NUMBERFORMAT(5111, '') This yields 5112 on CF 4.5. It's supposed to print 5111. However, if the first number in the string is = 5, the last number is always +1 (so the code above would yield 2). If the first number in the string is =4, the last number is always correct (or 1 in the string above.). If the first number = 9, the last number is always -1 (so the code above would yield 0). This happens on CF 4.5. CF 5.0 does not have this issue, but our commerce system is on 4.5. Any help or logical explanation would be great, because this doesn't make sense to me. -Vinny DiDonato AOL Handle = Vinny49 ~~ Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/cf-talk@houseoffusion.com/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
RE: CORRECTION: NumberFormat() Rounding Up
The first line should read: I have the NumberFormat() func formatting a number with zeros. The result is one integer higher than the original integer. I'm assuming its just a bug in Cf 4.5 Do you just need to pad put the string to a set number of characters? If so then you might want to look at adding a series of zeroes manually. ~~ Your ad could be here.

RE: ASP NumberFormat
The VB function to convert to an Integer is CInt(string). Will obviously only work if the string can be converted to an int. However - If I remeber correctly (and it's been a while!) I thought that in ASP you can't delare datatypes for variables. i.e in VB you do: Private myvar as int in ASP you just do: Private myvar So I'm not even sure the CInt function will work or indeed if it's supported in ASP. -- Andrew Ewings Project Manager Thoughtbubble Ltd http://www.thoughtbubble.net -- United Kingdom http://www.thoughtbubble.co.uk/ Tel: +44 (0) 20 7387 8890 -- New Zealand http://www.thoughtbubble.co.nz/ Tel: +64 (0) 9 488 9131 -- The information in this email and in any attachments is confidential and intended solely for the attention and use of the named addressee(s).

NumberFormat woes
I feel a little silly about not being able to figure this out... I'm using CF 4.5.1 SP2. I have a list of numbers: 7, 10, 203, 8, 26, etc. I want the single digit numbers to display as two digits (07, 08, etc.). All other numbers should just display as they are (10, 203, 26, etc.). I've tried NumberFormat(mynumber, 00), but then I get an error if there's a three digit number. I've tried NumberFormat(mynumber, 999), but that doesn't display the single digits as two digits. I've tried NumberFormat(mynumber, 900), but that displays the single digits with two leading zeros. I've tried other, similar combinations as well - all with no success. Any ideas?

RE: NumberFormat woes
If all you want to do is display it with a 0 in front, but want to keep it
a number for calculations and such, than just do this
cfif len(num) eq 1 0#num# cfelse #num# /cfif
It'll check to see if it's only 1 digit, and if so, it'll place that 0 in
front. Otherwise, just display the number. That way, they'll stay numbers,
and not become strings.

Numberformat question.
I have a situation where I need to display a price with either 2, 3 or 4 digits after the decimal place. The database is storing the information properly, but I need to format the display to "trim" the output. For example, I have three prices for four items: Item 1 has a price of 45.9 Item 2 has a price of 9.99 Item 3 has a price of 2.985 Item 4 has a price of 0.4585 I need the price to display as $45.90 for Item 1, $9.99 for Item 2, $2.985 for item 3 and $0.4585 for item 4. I know I can't use DollarFormat, since it trims at two decimal places. The question is, how do I set up the NumberFormat to show the pricing properly when possible top-ends are up to $999,999,999.?

I've been playing with a few different masks, but anytime I set up a decimal mask it's forcing all the places, so for example, if I have the mask set at ",9$99.", the numbers get formatted (using the examples I cited originally) $45.9000, $9.9900, $2.8950 and $0.4585.

Oy, that almost merits being put into a custom tag with as many times as I'm going to have to call it!

Fighting with NumberFormat
Hi all, I dunno if anyone has had this problem before, but I have been fighting with NumberFormat for about an hour now... I am getting a Cost Price for a product from a database which stores the price as "Money". So I am trying to keep things consistant remove the extra zeros' that are returned (1234.1200). I'm _trying_ to use NumberFormat(cost_price, "__.__") to format it as "0.00" etc. But I am getting some weird results cost_price=1234.12 = NumberFormat(cost_price, '__.__') =1232. cost_price=50.00 = NumberFormat(cost_price, '__.__') = 50.00 I have used combinations of everything I can think of 1234.1200 = '__.00' = 1232. 50. = '__.00' = 50.00 1234.1200 = '00.9900' = 1234.12 50. = '00.9900' = 50. etc, etc... Can someone PLEASE help me get this consitent... all I want is 2 decimal's after the decimal place, and any number before it.

Just try this with your number format #NUMBERFORMAT(1234.1200,'9.99')# Or if its always going to be a Money amount #DOLLARFORMAT(1234.1200)# Hope this helps.

I am getting a Cost Price for a product from a database which stores the price as "Money". So I am trying to keep things consistant remove the extra zeros' that are returned (1234.1200). I'm _trying_ to use NumberFormat(cost_price, "__.__") to format it as "0.00" etc. But I am getting some weird results cost_price=1234.12 = NumberFormat(cost_price, '__.__') =1232. cost_price=50.00 = NumberFormat(cost_price, '__.__') = 50.00 I have used combinations of everything I can think of 1234.1200 = '__.00' = 1232. 50. = '__.00' = 50.00 1234.1200 = '00.9900' = 1234.12 50. = '00.9900' = 50. etc, etc... Can someone PLEASE help me get this consitent... all I want is 2 decimal's after the decimal place, and any number before it.
