Form Fields formatting
I am using Word XP. Is there a way to format a number form field in a
protected form differently than the formats provided in the form field options? I would like to format the number with a dollar sign, but without a comma between the thousands and hundreds. Thanks, Ricki Miles |

You can customize the number mask using the same interchangeable bits used
in the samples provided. -- Suzanne S.

Thanks for the response. I have tried customizing the form field options
format box by removing the comma from the $#,##0.00 format, but then I get a decimal in the wrong place and the number represented is wrong. Thanks, Ricki "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...
