I'm using

num( Field,   '#####################')

where ##################### is the same qty of number of digits.

Try this.

Still no use.

Using the below in chart where vTopSales could be any number like 4565675737.

dual(text('$' & Num($(vTop5Sales),'################')), $(vTop5Sales))

Instead of showing as string, it is still getting treated as a number on display.
