Format floating inputmergefield

Stef Merlijn

Hi,

In the report a floating field can be inputed.
Like:

Code

MailingEditor.InputMergeField(lbVeldenLijst.Items[lbVeldenLijst.ItemIndex], lbVeldenLijst.Items[lbVeldenLijst.ItemIndex]);

In the database however this field can have a different number decimals per record.

Is there a way to allow the end-user to format the inputmergefield to f.e. 2 decimals?

Hi,

You need to format the text in the OnMailMergeGetText event. There you have complete control. Simply assign the result to Contents.StringValue

Hi Julian,

It sounds great, but can you supply me with a small sample on how to do it?
Maybe format the float to XX digits. Where XX is a variable value entered bij the end-user.

Thanks, Stef
