Show 3 decimal

[Former Member]

Hi everybody!

It's no way to show in a form a numeric field with 3 decimal digits.

The field in the context have the type CURRENCY 13 3

The form ALWAYS show the value multiplied by 10.

I've tried to use a text field, a numeric field, a decimal field.

I've tried to specify the pattern z9.999, in the data pattern and/or visibility pattern and/or editing pattern.

I've also tried to specify the number of initial or final digits.

Nothing of this had work.

Any help would be appreciate!.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

1) experiment with the locale

2) note that there are more type of field you can use, numeric field, decimal field etc. I am not sure but something tells me there is a currency field somewhere in the components library, have you checked all the tabs of the Library in your LCD?

3) read your LCD help (F1), try to find for "pattern", when I had the issues with currency formatting, I have found my solution in there, for example you´ll find you can put for example the dollar mark into the field (means currency) etc.

4) if you have a currency field in your context, why don´t you just drag it and drop on the form layout which will maintain the field properties for you, probably the default properties will behave for the currency

have a nice day, Otto

Try setting your locale on tha field to "English USA."

In Adobe, i've defined my field as Decimal with no patterns chosen and am passing a number such as 220.11 and am seeing it show correctly.
