    Changed to Currency in Field Property under Format not working...

    I still working within the SAME Form from previous questions...got those issues worked out (except for another question here someplace..lol)

    Anyways now that I am able to get a total price from the Qty * UnitPrice to ExtCost the only issue I have now is that I changed the Format (under Properties for the ExtCost Column) to Currency and still not showing the Dollar $ or even placing the decimals in the correct area. I even went and change the Decimal to 2 under Format.

    Please advise to what I am doing wrong here..

    TIA!!

    Stephanie

    P.S. by the time i am done with this database I am going to be a PRO!! lol

    did you change the formula to currency in the query or on the form itself? if it's only in the query it will not inherit that change. You have to change the format properties on the form, not the query.
