This message has been marked as a message which has helped to the initial question of the thread.
>Is there a function that will return how many decimal places a numberic field has? Something like LEN() for a character field. I know I can get it with AFIELDS but I only want to check one field and this returns all the fields then I need to find what the field number is in the array. Seems like a pain for something this simple.
Function DecCount(tnVal)
Local n
cVal = Alltrim(Padl(tnVal, 1000))

Return Len(cVal - IIF(At('.', cVal) = 0, Len(cVal), At('.', cVal))

? DecCount(AliasName.FieldName)
