Re: Edit code/word to show only so many decimals?

[booth@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

What about something along this line? 

An Alpha output field 12 long.
An %EditW into the 12-character  field from your 9.4 field, fully 
formatted as you desire.
An IF that says  If position 11:2 = '00'
then  Move   'bb' to the alpha field (where bb = blanks)

This looks like a gorgeous opportunity for the %BIFs to prove their stuff. 
  :)

Hi yall...

Let's say I have a field that is 9,4.

Is there a way to say "Only show the first two decimal places, but, if 
there
is anything but zero in 3 or 4, show them as well.."

So: 
1.1100 = 1.11
1.1110 = 1.111
1.1101 = 1.1101
1.00 = 1.00

Make sense?

Brad
