Hi everyone,
is it possible to show datas in a fill-in right aligned?
I tried to do this with using ZZZ,ZZZ,ZZ9.99 format and I checked right aligned radio button on proprty sheet. but I can't do it.
Thank you for your help.

right-alignment of numbers

The instructions to do this are in the Progress knowledgebase Id# 15920. One problem is you have to turn labels off for all fields in the frame. I found a way to get around this. I made no changes to the main frame but I dropped a new frame on top of it called Total-frame and made it just large enough to contain my field that I need to be right-justified and positioned it in the right place.
Turned off the labels for that frame only. Flag the field as right-aligned, set the font to a fixed font (I used font 3). If you're using a variable to accumulate this amount, the format has to be exactly the same as the fill-in field format that is displayed in the new frame.
This worked great for me and I didn't have to change my main frame that contained all the other data.

Good luck!
