>Its me again! Entering the IIF statement in the Grid.Column.Controlsource property sheet cell had no effect, that is the quantity field was displayed in the table format i.e. 5.00. When I set the property programmatically immediately after running the SQL to define the recordsource of the grid I get a blank field displayed. I tried this with INT(fieldname1) to keep it simple and avoid syntax errors. The simplest solution of all I presume is to include an expression in the SQL select to format the display- this worked fine with the simple INT(fieldname1) When I substituted the IIF statement the code saved without producing an error message but the cursor wasn’t produced. Using IIF(MOD((fieldname1), CEILING(fieldname1)) <>0, fieldname1, INT(fieldname1)) if I included the expression in the field list exactly as above it produced a compiling error, if I surrounded it in quotes it compiled fine but didn’t run as mentioned above. If I used INT(fieldname1) in quotes it worked fine. Is there a

SQL-Select accepts all VFP functions.
