Access and reports

In an existing report how do i round the numbers up to the nearest thousand, and show them without zero's eg, 32000 i would want to show as 32

RE: access and reports

Hello Sue,
Thanks for your post, to solve your problem, open your report in design view, select the control to which you wish to apply the rounding, open the properties page for the control, in the Format row enter the following code: #,##0,;[Red](#,##0,);-

This will only return the Thousands values, and will give negative numbers in red surrounded by brackets ()

hope that now works

Pete

Access tip:

Create An Inaccessible Field On A Form

There is sometimes a need to make a field in a form look like a normal field but be completely inaccessible to the user. To do this:

In the Field's Properties
Set the ENABLED property to No
Set the LOCKED property to Yes

The field will not grey out, but the user will not be able to do anything with it.
