I then check the Edit menu->Advanced. Format Selection is there, but Format Document isn't. Ok, so I go into Customize... verify that the...

My database has a column for numeric data items. How can I use this number in the "format" command, such that for, say precision 2, I get numbers like 2011.01 or 2387.00 and for 4 I would get 2011.0100 or 2387.0000? (simple question I know!)
