Input: Mismatch(FORMATNUMBER(value,'###0.000000')

Output:

have you tried using "ToString(ToNumber([name of coumn containing original value]), "###0.000000")" to bring the value

 

Hope this help

@Raj I have tried but I'm not getting expected Output

@NiranjanK1 would you be providing the value for the [value] field you mentioned in the below example? May be in a tabular format

 

Input: Mismatch(FORMATNUMBER(value,'###0.000000')

@binuacs value is field name which is having numeric data. Mismatch is string data. But with both of details I want additional decimals for number. It's not working any suggestions how can I add additional decimals.  Thanks in advance
