Listbox - incorrect number format for frequency.

Hi,

I have an issue where all of my listbox frequency counts are a set number format with no comma separated thousands.

I seam to not be able to change the number format.

Hi,

I think there is no direct setting for this, we need to use List box Expression for this, please find attached file for solution.

The number settings are for the field of the listbox, not for the additional expressions you add. Try adding the num function around your expression: num( ...myexpression... , '#,###')

I have the same problem, but NUM function doesn't help.

Hi Leonardo,

Thanks, but I am working on a personal license, so I can only import my own stuff or otherwise I can't open anymore what I have created myself. I don't know if it is just a threat, but I don't dare to try it out.

It is a simple listbox newly created and then added a sum([# Departures Performed]) as a expression. I tried the Number tab of the Properties dialog, but nothing helped. I then added in the expression the NUM function, but no succes either.

Is it possible to send some screenshots? By the way I am working with version 11.

Thanks,

Patrick

Thanks Leonardo,

I checked my expression again and somehow I used NUM# instead of NUM. I read the help about the NUM# function and now understand the output that I got. I changed it to NUM and now it is okay.
