How can I print a secure format amount field in PLD?

I need to print 1083.75 as $*****1,083.75.

Hi,

As a work around you may try the following:

• Create a  db field for currency say F_101
• Create a text field for ***** say F_102
• Variable or DB field for Amount say F_103
• Formula field and use the concatenate opertaion in the formula editor to get the desired result.
• (F_101,F_102,F_103)

This should resolve your problem.

Thanks,

Joseph

Hi Thomas Arnold...

I think in the pld you dont have option ... you can fix the length of the field but not with * mark

Try with the Crystal report

Hope Helpful

There is no Crystal format for AP Checks except the one converted from PLD.  That is not workable.
