Forgive me. I didn't get that the floating minus sign would be on the left
until after I sent the message.

J won't do anything for you. He'll still blow out at 18 instead of 19. If
need be he could use an editW instead and not have the left-most comma.
Trim works too, unless there really is 13,2 values.
But gosh, use the N,O,P, & Q. The world is coming to rely on left-side
minuses and we already have an image of stodgy old conventions and
layouts.

That N threw me. For my reference I have a piece of paper which came from
an old O spec form taped to my mod. I had to look up N. It means similar
to J, but with a floating minus sign instead. What is happening is that
the floating minus sign determines that the last zero is insignificant and
gets rid of it. I would suggest using J instead.

Can anyone tell me why I'm missing a decimal place from my report?
prtotalcst is 18 char and prints as (for example) ?1,234.1 (1 decimal)
totalcost is 13,2
c eval prtotalcst = %editc(totalcost:'N':*cursym)
TIA
Martin
