How to show a negative number on the table
I have a clolumn that I want to show a negative number, but Access
shows 0.00%. Here is the equation that I'm working from. Unit Price Change = (Proposed Price - Current Price)/Current Price So Example would be: Unit Price Change = (378.62 - 382.44)/382.44 This should give us a -1%, But Access is showing 0.00% May I please get some help on this matter. Thank you. |

Thank you. Take a look at the two good answers posted half an hour before you reposted your original question. My guess is that the Unit Price Change field is the default Number datatype, a Long Integer; integers are by definition whole numbers. John W. Vinson [MVP] |
