It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 13576
interpreted = N
texte = >The [format .2d][form.step][/format] used to give out 02, if we entered >02. now it just gives out 2. It drops the leading 0 that we use for >sorting purposes so 02, 03, 04, 05, 06 07, 08 and 09 would show up before >10.That is very odd. Please send me a PowerCenter box and I'll see what I can do ;) (just kidding; we'll have to figure out another way to test this out)In the meantime, can you rework your database to use fieldnameTYPE=Num so that sorting works properly even if you don't have preceding zeros?Grant Hulbert, V.P.
