: Hello,

: displayed as is.

: Actually a solution which influcences any statements without changing

data display is often entirely dependent on your tool/interface

you can you to_char, but then that changes the datatype

where are you displaying the numeric data (what tool, program, ui, etc.) where it needs this format?
