Well?

What problem are you having?

A Currency field will *allow* up to four digits after the decimal point but
you don't need to use them; you can set the decimal places property of the
field to 0 and use a Format property of $# to display only the numbers to the
left of the decimal.

Nobody here could possibly know what you mean by the $12 and $425 or how they
are related.
