Report Writer converting Long Integer to String

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Jo Wykerd 1,629

Hi there,

I am having a problem converting a log integer field to string type - it keeps dropping the decimal points and thousands separator. ie. 1,142.00 becomes 114200.  How do i force it to keep that format?  

I cannot convert back to integer as I also need to allow for the string "N/A" to appear in certain cases.

    Which field are you trying to convert? How did you get decimals in a long integer? I didn't think integers could have decimals.

    Kind regards,

    Leslie
