I needed to convert decimals to E notation and as it took me a while, I
thought it might be useful to others.
If you have a shorter alternative or find any glitches, please post!
on mouseUp
put fld in into tNum
put fld NumberFormat into tNumberFormat --| to specify output precision.

Oops... I see you wanted uppercase E:

Thank you, Monte, but the numberFormat of the output is somewhat
non-standard...
put format(%E,0.01234) -- 1.234000E-006
Can this syntax include alternative numberformats?
For example:
'0.00' -- 1.23E-06
'0.###' -- 1.234E-06
'00.' -- 01.2340E-06
Just asking as my %E
