Hi @dkma 

 

using a select tool and setting to fixed decimal like below should work. If it doesn't work can you provide sample data.

Hi @atcodedog05 ,

 

Actually , The data contains many numbers and strings in a columns, as per Solved: Re: Converting string to Number - Alteryx Community, 

 

Used regular expressions to find only numbes in the string the above number contains string and numbers, so I trimmed and changed it to Fixed Decimals.

 

 

Thanks for looking into it
