Reports 6 problem-wrong number of decimal places displayed

In Reports 6 I have a field formatted for 2 decimal places that only displays 1. If I change it to 3 decimal places then it displays all 3, but if I reduce it back to 2 it drops back to 1 again. Does anybody know what's going on? To add to the mystery, it appears to be replacing that final digit with a space. (The displayed value is supposed to align with values displayed above and below it.)

This is a simple formula column of type Number(13,2). Field format mask is
-99,999,999,990.00 and the value is 521.23. When the format mask is changed to
-99,999,999,990.000 it displays 521.230. When the mask is returned to the original
the field displays 521.2 .

Any ideas? Received on Fri Aug 20 1999 - 17:03:03 CDT
