Hi,
In my report, I have a field formated as 'B99,999.99'
and the report geenrates total at report break. At another break
it prints the total for that field but at report level when it prints
grand total, it prints ##########. I tried to increase the field by adding '9' in the format still getting
###'s. Again I tried with '99'
but no change.The actual total should be 105,002.98.
Any Idea or suggestion to resolve this?
Thanks.

Try increasing the Size of the displayed field. This is ussualy an indicator that there is not enough room on the report to show all of the data in the field.

AZt least I think that is what it would be.

anything like this?
if the format is B99,99 or less you will get ### in output.
SQL> get report
line 5 truncated.
  1  column sal format B99,999
  2  BREAK ON DEPTNO SKIP 1 ON REPORT
  3  compute sum label total of sal on deptno
  4  compute sum label grandTotal of sal on report
  5* select deptno,empno,sal from emp order by deptno
SQL> @report
