>What if I want to include an input mask with that? I tried "RZ" and "ZR".

Hi Jason,

An input mask is related to format, but is slightly different.

An input mask for a numeric field would be something like "999,999.99" or "###,###.##" (there are subtle differences between the two -- please check your documentation/help file).

Input mask characters affect the input of one position in the field, format affects the entire field.

For example, to input a percent which you do not want to display if zero, use "RZ" in the format, "999.99%" in the inputmask. The "R" will prevent the % character from being saved as part of the value of the field.

regards,
