I have *lots* of fields that are B(16)
If I want to display that number rounded to the fourth decimal, for example, in a textbox what are my options for formatting the display ( assuming not just creating a dummy display field and converting the number )
Seems there should be an easy trick to it, but I'm not seeing a format that looks right and I can't use an input mask for display - or can I ?
This is bound data ( albeit bound through VFE field objects so I do have some wiggle room in formatting before I display if I can just figure out what I want to tell it.
So, I have 008900098080.98090000000 and I just want to see 8900098080.9809 or even expressing in millions 8900.1
Suggestions?
TIA

Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.

Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
