Hi,

How do I put a currency symbol $ in front of the value in a Database collum
please ?

Thanks

John.

Hi,
you could add it in your query, eg
select '$' + MoneyField AS MoneyField
or use formatcurrency on your page
<%=formatcurrency(Recordset("MoneyField"))%>
normally using formatcurrency would be better as it also formats the number
to 2 decimal places, eg £10.20 not £10.2

Hi Jon,
I'm not sure where to put the line of code you said to put in the page?
Here is the colum of code. Can you advise me please where to place it in
the lines please? I want to format the RRP ex GST.
Thanks again.
John.
