I can't guarantee that it will; I recommend the approach I told you before.

In VFP6, for instance, for transform(-9.2) I am getting "-9,199999999999999". The situation gets worse if I use variables; probably due to rounding errors. This issue was supposedly resolved in later versions; but I think that other issues appeared.

OTOH, padl() seems to be more reliable; for instance, alltrim(padl(-9.2, 20)) gives me the expected "-9,2".

And yet, I would prefer to place my trust in a UDF. Here is a quick version of the function that uses the principle I explained in my previous message:

function MyTransform
	* Solve problems with transform() function
	lparameters tnNumber
	return strtran(alltrim(strtran(str(tnNumber, 20, 10), "0", " ")), " ", "0")
endfunc

You may want to enhance it so that it shows, for example, "0,3" instead of ",3".

HTH,

Hilmar.
