Hi,

How to use NUMTOSTRING() to display negative value with bracket ?
for example

as
(1234.56)

Hi Peter,

1. Check the numeric value IF its negative.
2. If yes then combine NumToString and StringBuild.
3. If not then use NumToString only.

Hope to help you.

Hi Vassills,

Actually i have used similar method to yours ( e.g. using ABS()). Was thinking windev has already a function call for it....

Hi Peter,

You can use the ..DisplayMask property of control.
