asp numeric values

[Rahul Chatterjee]

hello all

I am displaying values retrieved from a database using asp in text boxes. Is
there any way to right justify the values in the text box and also have them
in 2 places of decimals

Please advise

Thanks

ASP can't make that happen, but you can use styles to align your text.

and also have them
in 2 places of decimals

Download the WSH documentation here:

Then look up the formatNumber function, assuming you're using VB Script.

And you may want to check out VBScript's FormatNumber() function.

IIn ASP, you can use FormatNumber, something like this:

<%
= FormatNumber( 12345.67, 2 )
%>

In your html, you can use: align='right'

-rwg
This is what I think, not necessarily what is accurate!

Im fairly new to this whole ASP game. But i think you could easily right
align text boxes using CSS.

<style type="text/css">
textbox {
text-align:right;
}
</style>

Check out DevGuru.com for Good refrence pages on CSS / HTML. that will
tell you all the exact code.
