    What is the formatting problem?

    Is UnitRev-MF1-MF2-Mf3 a field name or attempting arithmetic?

    What is "Result type"?

    Result Type Double
    Format Standard
    Decimal Places 2
    Text Align General

    The calculation works properly and nis displayed in Data Sheet View as 1,688.60.
    When putting that field in a text box in a report it appears as 1688.6.
    I have tried changing the Result type but nothing I have changed will display in the report as it is in the table.
    There has to be some simple thing I'm missing.

    Any Thoughts
    Thanks
