Zero of the decimal does not want to print (0.250) ???

[sarah77]

I'm not be able to print a numeric field witha value 0.250 ?
It always printed as 0.25 and the user wants three decimal digits 0.250 ( any comments ).

Thanks

Are you in Excel? Format/Cells/Number - Decimal Places = 3

Nop,
i'm using visual basic 6 to write an application that requires to print any numeric value with the last three decimal eventhough the third one is zero such as (0.250) .

Dim sDisplayString As String

sDisplayString = Format("0.25","0.000")

MsgBox sDisplayString

I found a way at the moment of printing without changing the
value of the field as the following :

if left( right(str(12.25),3),1 )="." then
print str(12.25)+"0"
endif

the result will of printing will be 12.250

Thanks for everybody tried to help

That won't work if the value is "12.2"

Dim sVal As String
sVal = Format("0.25","##,##0.000")
Print sVal
