I have two types of records - "P" and "S". Each of these have an amount field. If the record is a "P" record I want my amount field to be displayed with commas and a $ sign. If the record is an "S" record I want the amount field to be displayed with only commas - NO $ sign. Can anyone give me an example of how this is done.... Thanks so much ......

DEFINE FILE CAR
FMT/A8 = IF RETAIL_COST GE 10000 THEN
'D12.2' ELSE 'D12.2M';
END
-RUN
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM
RETAIL_COST
RETAIL_COST/FMT
BY COUNTRY
BY CAR
END
You can change the if statement to look for P's and S's.This message has been edited. Last edited by: <Mabel>,

Report Painter.... Right click on field, select dynamic and then select the FMT ( or whatever name you gave the already defined field) .......
Took me a little bit but I found it - if in fact this is how you would have done it .... thanks for the tip that Report Painter does this too...... I'm just starting to use Report Painter it's amazing all the things it can do........
and my user is very happy I could accomodate her particular formatting issue......
