One of my users has asked me this question regarding Hypercard v1.2.2 and printing out numbers with fixed numbers of decimals. Is it possible to format numbers with a specific number of decimal places, such as in Excel (e.g. Dollars and cents : $5 = $5.00 etc). This might involve adding zeros on to the end of numbers, unless there is a command in Hypertalk. Are fixed decimals a feature of Hypercard v2 (when it appears...)?
