	I am trying to format the number in a field so that it will have no more than 2 decimal places, but fewer if appropriate. In other words, I want it to display data as 4 or 4.5 or 4.25, but not 4.00 or 4.50. I'm using CR 2008. Can you help me with this? Edited by Davida - 29 Jul 2009 at 2:14pm

	There is probably a more elegant solution but try this: Right click on the field and select Format Field. Select the Number tab click on Customize UNder the Number Tab add a formula to the Decimals as: *if right(totext({table.numberfield},2),2)="00" then 0 else* *if right(totext({table.numberfield},2),1)="0" then 1 else 2*
