Thousands Separator

Hi, I'd like to display a amount in € this way : 1.000.000 € (no decimal), but the Format number function doesn't operate, I never get the Thousands Separator.
Thanks

    Hi Pierre,

    The best way would probably to use a formula where you transform the number into a formatted text using the FORMAT function, as below :

    format( Number, Format ) converts a Number into a formatted text. As Format a Text is needed:

    0 represents a number or 0
    # represents a number that is diplayed only, if the number is big enough
    . represents the decimal separator (will be formatted according to the country, that means, in the UK and US it is shown as a floating point)
    , represents the grouping separator (will be formatted according to the country,that means, in the UK and US it is shown as a comma)
    Examples:

    format(42.5, "0") results in "42"
    format(42.5, "000") results in "042"
    format(42.5, "000.00") results in "042.50"
    format(42.5, "0.00") results in "42.50"
    format(42.5, "#,##0.00") results in "42.50"
    format(1042.5, "#,##0.00") results in "1,042.50"

    No, KO for me, as you can see the selection of Thousands Separator does'nt display "." in the choices, for me ...

    Then, maybe is your system settings?

    I know that Ninox doesn't have it's own control panel for Dates and follows Mac settings for desktop app and Browser settings for web app.

    Maybe this applies for numbers too?
