field format

Former Member — Thu, 27 Jul 2006 09:12:15 GMT

Good morning:

I have a table control with some fields with 2 decimals, and i want now to make the operations with 6 decimals, but only seing 2 decimals, so i am going to increase the number of decimals of these fields, i have been seeing the properties of the fields of table control, but i can´t control the number of decimals with the lgdef, does anybody know if i can do that with the text mask or using another way but not changing the fields name?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

This can be achieved from taking the values from the structure/table to screen fields,there it should be declared as type CURR with number of decimal places as 6,

But i want to have 6 decimals in the field, but not to see them, what happens if i use an user conversion for the fields, can i use it for changing the sight but not the real value?

regards

thanks in advance
