Hi Patrick, 

 

I have the value in this format:

0220694, 0095624

 

I want to convert this to a currency format 220,694.00, 95,624.00. 

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

 

Thank you 

Manisha

Hi thanks, 

 

i tried to replicate the formulate to V_String but didnt work using: 

PadLeft([Field1],4,"0")

The data contains example below:

300

1229

2120

 

Only the first one will need to add zero to it at the beginning '0300'.

 

Can you please assist? 

thanks!
