Hi,

Use This below expression.

num(sum(Total_unemployment),'#,##0')

or

num(sum(Total_unemployment),'###0')

Which settings do you have for thousand separator in the data load script? It should be a space for this to work:

SET ThousandSep=' ';

I guess you have another setting.

There are two alternatives:

  • Change the ThousandSep setting in the load script

or

  • Override it in your expression when you use NUM():
    num(sum(Total_unemployment),'# ##0', ',' ,' ')
    The 3rd parameter is decimal separator,( I set it to a comma), and the 4th parameter is the thousand separator which I set to a space.
