I have a compute field as:

COMPUTE NEWF2BUDGETYIELD/D20.1 = F2BUDGETYIELD * 100;

Now, it always displays the result as defined:

Value: 99
Display: 99.0

Value: 99.5
Display: 99.5

Is there a way to suppress the decimal portion of it is zero (99 instead of 99.0)?

Thanks,
Dan

Take a look at the discussion "creating dynamically formatted fields"

and see this example

DEFINE FILE CAR
MYFORMAT/A8=DECODE COUNTRY ('ENGLAND' 'P15.2C' 'JAPAN' 'P15' ELSE 'P15.2M');
END

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM SALES/MYFORMAT 
BY COUNTRY
END


that does whta you need...

Frank is correct, and to get this to work on COMPUTED fields needs an extra step:
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM RCOST DCOST
COMPUTE 
PCT/D12.2 = ((RCOST-DCOST)/DCOST)*100; NOPRINT
FMT/A8 = IF INT(PCT) EQ PCT THEN 'F3' ELSE 'F4.1'; NOPRINT
PCT/FMT
BY COUNTRY
BY CAR
END
However that right justifies and looks bad IMO.

TABLE FILE CAR
SUM RCOST DCOST
COMPUTE 
PCT/D12.2 = ((RCOST-DCOST)/DCOST)*100; NOPRINT
ALPHA1/A6 = FTOA(PCT,'(D5.1)','A6'); NOPRINT
ALPHA2/A6 = FTOA(PCT,'(D5)','A6'); NOPRINT
DISPLAY/A6 = IF INT(PCT) EQ PCT THEN ALPHA2 ELSE ALPHA1;
BY COUNTRY
BY CAR

may well work for you.

Thanks Frank and Alan for your suggestions. I was able to get my results using Alan's first example.
