Okay, here's the scenario...I have a series of 'number' formatted fields. In the 'number format...' option, they're formatted as "Format As Decimal" with two digits of precision. These fields are used to enter dollar/cents amounts. I'd like to be able to copy the contents of these number fields, and paste them into a single text formatted field, with carriage returns separating the dollar/cents entries. I suppose this would be considered a merge, since I'm copying data from multiple fields, and am pasting them into a single field. Not sure, though. Anyway, I have created a script that goes to these number-formatted fields, copies the content, shifts over to the target text field, and pastes the content with a carriage return. It works beautifully, with one exception. If I enter "363" into one of source number-formatted fields, it DISPLAYS as "363.00", but pastes as "363" over in the target text field. The question is: how do I get my trailing ".00" to copy over?

Sorry for being ultra verbose here, but I want to make sure I get the point across. Thanks in advance for any thoughts on this!

Simplest way would be to force the number fields to have two decimals using a calculaton field with a text result.

That calculation could be...

__________________

Let([

num = Round(numberField;2);

integer = int(num);

dec = Length(num-int)

];

"$" &

Case(

lengthDec = 0; num & ".00";

lengthDec = 2; num & "0";

num)

)

But it depends, if the number could be negative or in the thousands or greater the calc will need to be adjusted.
