Archived from groups: microsoft>public>frontpage>client (more info?)

I have a Access database query that feeds my FP results page. One of the
fields is a currency format with fixed decimal places set a 2. The currency
format works correctly in access query's and reports.

My Problem is when the web page displays the the same data it truncates
trailing zeros. For example $12.90 displays as $12.9 and $126.00 displays
$126. Any ideas?

I already have the field properties set to Currency, in access the numbers
appear correctly. The problem happens when the web page displays the
numbers. Are there any settings in Frontpage for this, or a server setting
that needs changed.

Did you read the instructions at the link I posted? It tells you how to
format the output in FrontPage.

Kathleen sorry if this is a dead thread, but its just what I need. I have
read the Spiderwebwoman tips and seen the code to be inserted into the SQL,
but please where does it go in the SQL part of the page, I dont quite
understand this bit.Secondly, does inserting this code give you a new field
name that you should pick up somewhere please. (I actually need to format
percentages but it looks like the same princiles to apply? It aall looks ok
in the Access Query feeding the ASP, 2 decimal places, but the ASP shows it
to about 8 or more) Thanks Mick

Hi Mick:
Here's one way to do it: rerun the Database Wizard and modify the SQL in the
Custom Query window. Let FrontPage (re)generate the page, and the new field
should show up on the page.

Also, here's how to format the field as a percentage:

Hi Kathleen, thanks for the reply, Im stilll not qite there Im afraid.
I opened the "Custom Query" and added the second line thus:

SELECT * FROM clientswherefind
Format(Expr1,'##0.00##%') as newPercent

Expr1 is a calculated percentage field in a Access Database within query
"clientswherefind", however it gives me reselts to 10 or more decimal places
on the ASP.

Unfortunately t errors immediately, am I missing something between the two
parts of the query please.
Kind regards
Mick
