Hi,

I have a little "output" issue while using SQL Plus but I can't remember on the correct function/parameter to solve it.

I have a normal Select Query which includes as well a number field. But in the output of the query the values for that field are populated like '2.0000E+10' (So not the correct value is displayed).

Can somebody please let me know how I can display the numbers correctly (without the 'E')

Thanks in advance!

What is the type of the field?
What is the actual value in database?
Post a Test case: create table and insert statements along with the result you want with these data.

Regards
Michel
