Hello people,
I have a little question that's really bugging me...
I am trying to write a generic routine to work out the maximum width of the data in a column in a grid.
If the data is Numeric I run into problems
Str(1.23456) returns 1
So I have to specify the Length & decimal places
Str(1.23456, 8,5)
When I know the format of the number it's easy but how do I do this when I don't know how many dec places the number has?
I can get this info from the source table (aFields) but there HAS to be a cleaner way of doing this.
Any suggestions?
TIA
Will
