Custom Form Field Type?

[Jerry Sattler]

I need to be able to enter and calculate prices which may have 4 decimal
point. The number option only offers limited formatting options. How can
I add the ones I need? Ideally I would like to show 2 decimal places unless
I enter more places manually. Using a macro would also be fine to turn on
the extended decimal places. Thank you for any assistance you can offer.

Using fields to calculate your prices, the number of decimal places
shouldn't matter. The calculation should use the maximum number of places.
Just leave out the switch.


${ ={ REF Text1 } + { Ref Text2 } + { REF Text3 } } = $32.3083
or
If you want the final total to be limited to two decimal places put the
switch at the end of the calculation eg

{ ={ REF Text1 } + { Ref Text2 } + { REF Text3 } \# "$,0.00"} = $32.31
