Show percentage symbol

Post by numberz »

Hi and TIA,
Is it possible to show a percent symbol in a field as in 23% instead of just titling the column "Insurance %"

No doubt someone might know a way Harry but in the meantime this is what I use....

Set the ToolTip (display to the Right) to %
Cheers,
Mark

Mark, thanks. I think that's a great idea for a form, however, I should have stated that this is for a query result...inside the cell itself. IOW, we can display $5.00 but can't display 5% ?

you might be able to use a calculated column now in 8.1
PlaintText field = AS_STRING(bo.thePercent) + ' %'

i tested on the release version and wasn't satisfied.

I wanted a % change, so I had the obligatory "divide by zero" issue. And then the formatting style was different for that column. after 15-30 minutes I scrapped it until a future patch.
