Hi all
I have a small query related to the field format the way its displaying
I would like to display it as a number but its converting and formating to different way, how to set it up right in the view 
you see on top it displays properly when I'm pulling it as a reference value its showing the same thing as a string.
Is there a way to convert from string value to numeric and display.
I've also tried doing by assigning it to a variable
x = "{!R82136505.loan_number}";
return x;
it returns as number but still when i show it to front end something goes wrong...
its urgent kindly suggest
It seems like you see scientific notation in View. Are you using Formula field?
Yes robie.... is there a way to solve this structure...
Try using "string" as return type, not "decimal" which is default.
Try using something like "{!R629945#id}" and set Formula return type to "String"
well it is String value Robie and still it shows it as what I've mentioned above
Try using quotes around template token
well somehow many solutions did not help me..
But this funny little mod help solve the issue by magic again....
x = "{!R82136505.loan_number}";
return x;
This way you use a string in your formula, not a number. Please use Formula debugger for more info.
I've tried all that i know in RB #pvorobie but the only above solution worked :(
