Dear Friends,

I often need to display a MySQL calculated field in a DbGrid and find that if I use the Format(calculated_field, decimal_places) thingy I get the results as a string and often the thousand separator of comma causes the thousands to be lost.
I solve this by implicitly setting the display property of the columns, and set the thousand separator to something other than a comma, but hope that there is a more graceful solution.


Warmest Regards

In answer to a question that was posed by myself a long time ago, I have found that the round(field,n) has much more pleasant results.
