Hi, I have a report which displays a variable ( Bigdecimal ). I want to have a condition on this variable to check if its zero then display a dash "-". As i can't fit a dash into a bigdecimal field, I am having some trouble doing it. my second option is to set a variable and initlaize it to a value of "-" and then in the other field, check for the condition and then display this one. But in any case , I am having trouble displaying a "-" instead of a zero.. Any help appreciated. Post Edited by crashers at 09/08/2009 21:32
