DisplayFormat not working

edited November 2004 in General
In the detail section of the report i set the displayformat for a TppDBText
field to #,###.00 and it doesnt seem to work. I use the same format on a
TppDBCalc field and everything looks fine. Any idea where i should look.

Cheers.

    Hi Sean,

    Which version of ReportBuilder are you using? What is the field type you
    are trying to impose this display format? If you select a display format
    from the DisplayFormat dialog, does that work correctly? ReportBuilder uses
    a variety of built in Delphi routines to format text on screen depending on
    the type of data. See the ppDisplayFormat.pas file if you would like to see
    how this is done.
