Format a number at runtime (with a formula)

raterus

Hello,

I'm evaluating switching to BIRT, over our current product, Crystal Reports. I'm going over features of Crystal Reports I know I need to figure out in BIRT.

One such feature is the ability to control the formatting of a number, at runtime. For instance, sometimes I'll need the number to display as three decimal places, and the next time I run it (for a different customer), I'll have to display the number to 12 decimal places.

Does BIRT have a way to configure a number field at runtime like this? I didn't immediately see a way to do it.

Thanks,
--Michael
