** Nov 2014
If you want thousand separator for décimal, the last line change :
Substitute ( NumToJText ( Middle ( Nbr - Int ( Nbr ) & Substitute ( ( 10 ^ p ) - 1; 9; 0 ) ; 2 ; p ) ; 1; 0 ); ","; Sep )
instead of
Middle ( Nbr - Int ( Nbr ) & Substitute ( ( 10 ^ p ) - 1; 9; 0 ); 2; p ) )
** April 9/10 : calculation modified if n is empty return nothing
** December, 21. : calculation modified : change Filter ( 1,1 ; ".;" ) by Filter ( 1/2 ; ".;" ) for all language ( x,xx for French, x.xx English and all - [comma or point in number]) ) **
** December, 18. : calculation modified : add GetAsNumber() for get signe
for entry without 0 -> ,123 or 0,123 **

| This is a great function. How would you go about editing it so that one can show the decimals only if there are decimals? Much like the number formatting for a number field on a layout. Great work! |

| Hello and Thank You ! "How would you go about editing it so that one can show the decimals only if there are decimals?" It can do without adding a parameter to the function, perhaps simply with the following calculation, with this, each chose its resul ? If ( int ( MyNum ) <> (MyNum) ; NumbertFormat ( MyNum ; 2 ; "" ) ; MyNum ) I do not know... Agnès |

| Thank you, very useful. For myself I needed it to use the existing precision of the number (when I pass "" as the precision param). I think that is what David (first comment) also required. Just add this line below p = DecimalPrecision ; p = If ( IsEmpty ( p ) and n ≠Int ( n ) ; Length ( Abs ( n ) - Int ( n ) ) - If ( n < 0 ; 2 ; 1 ) ; p ) ; |

| Coucou, je me suis permis d'extrapoler un peu au fil des besoins. Avec un "rendez à César ce qui est à César" en début de commentaire. https://www.briandunning.com/cf/2283 Et merci encore, I still love this "trics". |
