display decimals in smartforms

[Former Member]

Hello All,

I want to display a weight field in a smartform. when the value is 2.10 it shows the proper value but if the value is 2.00 it shows the value as 2. How can I display the value with decimals.

Please help.

Thanks,

Anju

Check if there are any formatting option associated with the text element ?

If not, i think there must be some coding which is removing the decimals in case of zero decimal value.

Check & then revert back.

Hello Suhas,

There is no coding which is removing the values from the data. The value is displayed as 2.00 just before the value is printed but not displayed in the form.

So we rule out one possibility. Are there any formatting options associated with the text element ?

I have not provided any formatting options for the text element.

Try passing the current itab-value to a Global variable inside the smartform:

create global variable:

*variable type P decimals 2

so in the window's text you can pass the current value to the global variable so it displays the 2 decimals places.

global_value = curr_value

hope it helps.

for smartforms, use the format:

&field(<10.2)&

means your field value, with 10 positions, and two decimals....

hope it helps

Hello,

If I try using p(.3) It gives me an error "incorrect formatting".

Hi,

If you want to display 2 decimal places in smartforms then use

&fieldname(.2)&
