Hi Vikram

Thanks for responding.

If you have data spanning two(2) currencies, I want it to be formatted according to their decimals (which can be 2 or 3); but I have only one colmn to display both formats.

USD format should appear as 99.87
Tunisian format should appear as 99.870

If its a whole number, it should display 2 or 3 zeros depending on the changing currency.

Hope it clear. Thanks.

Do you have a way to distinguish whether you are about to display Tunisian or USA currency? If not, you should first find a way to do that.

Once you fix it, create a Format trigger for the field that displays this value which will look like this:

IF currency = 'Tunis' THEN
   srw.set_format_mask ('NNNGNN0D000');
ELSIF currency = 'USA' THEN
   srw.set_format_mask ('NNNGNN0D00');
END IF;
