Hi Jemmy, You could use the FORMAT function

quote:

String := FORMAT(Value [, Length] [, FormatNumber | FormatString]) String Data type: text or code This string contains the formatted output. Value Data type: any This is a C/AL variable (expression) of any simple data type, such as option, integer, biginteger, decimal, char, text, code, date, time, datetime, boolean, binary or GUID. |
