I have a defined field called weight that is defined as D10v3. I want to display just a underline for user input if there is no value to display otherwise display the value. What would be the proper syntax to display this?

This is trying to make a define out of apples and oranges. Someone may know a trick...but does it have to be an underline...could it be a different colar...and a small line:

TYPE=DATA,BACKCOLOR=YELLOW,STYLE=BOLD+UNDERLINE,COLUMN=weight,WHEN=weight EQ 0,$

Something like this?

-*
DEFINE FILE CAR
TMP_SALES/D10.3 = SALES;
NEW_SALES/A15 = IF SALES EQ 0 THEN '_______________' ELSE FTOA(TMP_SALES,'(D10.3)',NEW_SALES);
END
-*
TABLE FILE CAR
PRINT
BODY
SALES
TMP_SALES
NEW_SALES
BY COUNTRY
BY CAR
BY MODEL
END
-*
