Hide / Don't hide Decimal Places on reports.

[Guest]

I have a report which is based on a complex query which using groups, sum,
expressions etc.

On my report I have a field which shows an integer, decimal place and
decimal i.e.

312.44
64.00
123.00
122.22
..
What I would like to do is only show the decimal places if they are greater
than zero, i.e.
312.44
64
123
122.22

Can this be done?

What happens if you set the Format property of the text box to:
General Number
You may find that you get more than 2 places when there are additional ones.

Using:
#,##0.##
would drop the digits after the decimal point, but you would still get the
spot.

Tried #,##0.## and it forced everything to 2 decimal points hence you see all
the .00.

However General number did indeed work, or I should say 99%. It hides all
the .00 but when there is a decimal place it shows one 1 place, i.e. 354.67
actual shows as 354.7

It would be good to get the 2 decimal points but this is a great benefit
anyway.
