Another Percentage Issue

Avatar

Level 4

Hi, I have a form with a table in it.  In one of the tables, I need the number to format as, for example, 25.44%.  Everything that I used in the Patterns in the Decimal Field it goes to 2,544%. 

Does anyone know how to get this field to display the percentage as 25.44%?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Enclose the percent sign with quotes in the numeric pattern

It worked beautifully.  Thanks.  I always seem to have issues surrounding the Patterns in Adobe LiveCycle.  Are there any resources out there that I could review when I have issues like this besides posting in the forum?

Yes, there is a XFA Spec that explains patterns very detailed (page 1150).

Hi - This is another one of those - I used your quote but it didn't turn out how i wanted it..

for example when you take 5800/4000 = 1.45 but I want it to say 45% instead of 1.45% . Also, how would i  have it display where its not rounding up the numbers?

For example 5,850/4000 = 1.4625 = I want it to display 46.25% instead of 1.46%

Thanks!
