The docu names: https://fmhelp.filemaker.com/help/11/fmp/en/html/edit_layout.10.17.html +++ To specify that each value be displayed with the same number of places, select Fixed number of decimals and type a value. (A positive value specifies places to the right of the decimal place, a negative value specifies places to the left.) [...] (For example, if you enter 789.78 and you specify 3 fixed digits, you see 789.780 in the field; if you specify 0 fixed digits, you see 790; if you specify -2 fixed digits, you see 800.) +++ I can use only positive numbers from 1 to 99, neither 0 nor negative numbers. - Martin
