Need two decimal places

[JSRunnels]

I know this must have a very easy answer, but I can't seem to get it to work...

I want a calculation field to show two decimal places -- even if they are zeros. The field sums two number fields. If the sum is "7", I want it to return "7.00".

This is a simple, simple invoice. I have tried Round, Truncate and SetPrecision. It always returns "7".

I know there must be an easy way to do this, but somehow I am missing it.... I have searched FMForums for decimals, cents, steprecision. No luck....

Please help!

Make the result of your calculation field a Number. In Layout mode, select the field and choose Format > Number... from the menu. Select "Format as decimal", and check "Fixed number of decimal digits: 2".

Thank you.

I knew it would be easy. I just spent an hour trying to figure it out!!!

I love FMForums.
