>Does Visual Foxpro support using scientific notation? I have a table with very small numbers (1.0e-9, or so), and entering them has been a pain because I had to enter 0.0000000001. And when I want to show the table, I would like it to be in scientific notation as well. This should be intuitive and obvious, but I don't know the answer. Right now, my table stores the fields as numeric.

Put a ^ character in the format property. That means "scientific notation". It works only with numeric fields.
