Hi Guys,
I have written a programme as an assignment that calculates interest on withdrawals and deposits, etc.
I have the charges for withdrawals and deposit bonuses displayed in labels after calculations have been made, but if their value is for instance 4.50 they show as 4.5. Is there any way to get them to display as 4.50 for example, and how would I go about getting a £ sign in front ie £4.50.
Sorry for the daft question but it took a while to do and any front end improvements would look better.
Cheers guys
Gus

Look up numeric format in VB help index, it will lead you to Format Function and example code.

Hello GUSMAN,
You might need to increase the size of the label little bit to show the full number. Just a suggestion. Good Luck.

You could convert the Value to a String and then add the "£" on the front, you may have to "strip off" the invisible "+" sign on the value.

I Will be away this weekend but will be giving your suggestions a try as soon as possible.

Hi Guys
To Arky: Having Problems displaying help file but will have a look in VB book now I know what to look for.
To Born to code: cheers for that. the label size was fine though so I will look at the format.
To OBP: I put a £ & 1.50 in code and it kept saying "Variable not defined", Highlighting the £ sign. But when I enclosed the £ in "" Ie. "£" & 1.50 I had the result I wanted £1.50.
Great Stuff I always get good support here. I will sort out the other little problem so you can say I have had my question answered, and thanks once again.
Sorry if the questions are a bit simple but it is hard to start off, as you can appreciate.

Gus

Ps I may be back (lol) Cheers
