Dynamic Block Linked with Field

[dbroada]

on the screen on the left change the "Format" to decimal and you will be able to set a precision level. I had to insert a new instance of the block to see the changes. I couldn't get the block itself to update with an ATTSYNC/regen command.

I must be missing something.. i've already tried that but it doesn't change it. Even tried starting one from scratch. Can't quite figure how you got from my Start point level and inputted the data to make it be divided by 1000. Am i doing this the wrong way?

I must admit I cheated by cutting & pasting your Start point into my formula block. What are you doing this lunchtime? I may be available about 1:15 if you want to call. I'll pm you my number.
