How can change last to digits in a currency field to a decimal. In other words if I enter 12345 in should display as 123.45

This sounds like quite a dangersous thing to do.
But you can use the afterupdate event procedure and do..


Me.textboxname = nz(me.textboxname)/100

Thanx Peter46. I know it's a bit dangerous but it makes value inputs eazier and quicker

As long as everybody knows to enter the decimal part of the value even if it is 0.

Bruce I'm aware of that. I will send communique in this regard to the users. Thanx for the info

I know that the below code is syntaxtually incorrect but I am in a hurry and wanted to at least get it posted.
wouldnt you need to consider if the user entered it with a decimal in the first place?

Me.textboxname = iif(instt(1,me.textboxname,"."),,nz(me.textboxname)/100)

If that reminder is enough, where can I get some of your users?

To fill out Bob's suggestion a little, maybe something like:

Me.Textboxname = IIf(InStr(Me.Textboxname,".") > 0, Me.TextBoxName, Nz(Me.Textboxname,0)/100)

You could also use the KeyPress event to do this couldn't you? You could test each ASCII code for digit or decimal point. If digit, join to previous entry, if decimal point, then if no decimal point already, join to previous entry. Once decimal point entered only allow at most two more digits. Then use Format function in AfterUpdate event of text box to present the entry as desired.
