I have a text box that contains the number 1234, I want the value form
the text box to display in a second text box so I used:
[NewTextBox]=[OldTextBox]
The problems is that this displays 1234 and I want it to display 1,234
using a comma for the thousands and no decimal places.
I changed the format on the second text box to:
[NewTextBox]=Format([OldTextBox],”Standard”)
Now is displays 1,234.00. I don’t want the 2 decimal places, I just want
1,234
I then tried:
[NewTextBox]=int(Format([OldTextBox],”Standard”))
which displays 1234 with no comma for the thousands.
Can anyone show me how to force the result of 1,234 with a comma but
without any decimal places please?

You are not limited to the "named" formats like General, Standard. etc.. You
can also explicitly define the format you want like this...
=Format([OldTextBox], "#,###")

Thanks very much, isn’t knowledge a wonderful thing? I tried many different approaches before bothering people on the news group, your answer works perfectly and has saved me a lot of time, thanks again.
Set the newtxtbox equal to the oldtxtbox
In the format tab of the newtxtbox, set the format to standard and the
decimals to 0.

Hi, I need to truncate a number to two decimal places without rounding.
All the functions i;ve tried tend to round up the numbers. Also i cant
use any string functions to limit the size because the size can vary.
example, 34.56998 must be set to 34.56
thanx
any help is greatly appreciated
btw this is using asp vbscript

Sooner or later everytime I found recreational programming challenges I
stumble with how I test if a number is has decimal places differnt than
0?
For example if I want to know if a number is a square number (i.e. a
number which square root is a positive number as 4, 9, 16 have) I do
something like:
int square = sqrt(number);

I have a Decimal or a Double - your choice. I'd like to print the number as
string with a specified number of decimal places. Let's say my number
110.5, and I'd like to capture it in a string with 3 decimal places:
"110.500". How do you do this? My method below isn't working so hot.
Decimal dcTotal = 110.5;
string strMyString = (Decimal.Round(dcTotal, 3)).ToString();
//Do something with this string
Thanks in advance!

Hi
I'm really stuck outputting a double number to the console with three
decimal places if the furthest right value is a zero.
I can coutput the number 4.546 as 4.546 but then if I output 0.220 it comes
out as 0.22 and drops the zero. Also, outputting 1.000 outputs as 1.
How can I format it to include the zeros?

Hi!
I have a little trouble about in truncating numbers. What i want to do is to get the two decimal places.
here's the example:
when i try to get the half of 20500.39 it shows like this:10250.195
but what i want to see is 10250.19 only.
another one is 20500.42, it shows like this: 10250.2
which in real, it must be 10250.21.
