Hi Ferdinando, Just tested v16.5 (on Mac, but that should not differ from Windows). IMHO there are no changes in number formatting between v16 and v17. Created a 1 column array based list box on a form. Populated the array with some random real numbers. The column is set to variable type

if ###,## does not display a blank for 0 you may have to convert back and forth to/from text to get the formatting you want Chip On Mon, 5 Aug 2019 23:24:26 +0200, stardata.info via 4D_Tech wrote: > Sorry i use 4D V16 on Windows. > > I need to display a number in an array real displayed in a

This ##0.###; ; produces good results for the example of 0.5 There are some things to watch for in the display detail event 4D v17 0 as blank 1 as 1 .5 as 0.5 .007 as 0.007 .0007 as 0 <- not blank 10.12345 as 10.123 10.1237 as 10.123 <- rounding Keith - CDI > On Aug 5, 2019, at 9:58 AM,

First of all. what version of 4D I would think you can not do all you want with a number. You could do it with a text variable for example in the in display detail form event If $YourNumber_R (is a real) $YourNumber_R:= 100.5 $YourText:=string($YourNumber_R;”###.0”) $YourNumber_R:= 100.52

I don't know anything about the plugin you were attempting to use, but one way to create formatted documents for Excel is to use XML. You specify the type for each cell. I'm sure you could figure out the format option you want by saving a document with Excel and looking at the XML. John DeSoi,

Thanks for all answers. The problem is not i 4D, i get the leading zero but only in a text cell. In excel you can format manualy a column as number with fixed numbers preformated (selfdefined format). In my case, 11 numbers, "000". If you put 10 numbers in a cell it gets leading zero.

Hilsen: How about putting the logic in 4D code and then branch to the appropriate format. Intelligent formats are handy and elegant but don't have the simplicity, flexibility, or transparency of 4D code. This sort of code is very quick to code and very easy to understand: If(length of date=5)

the plugin has no documentation because it is just a wrapper of an existing free library which has no documentation other than its header files (which is quite normal for a C library) sorry about that. if that's not good enough for you then you might to explore commercial options.
