[ Type code = $ ] Redisplays as "$$###,###,###.##". If . (period) code not used, displays with last 2 digits entered to the right of the decimal point. Otherwise inserts ".00" after the number entered (if hard decimal not entered) or simply formats the cents as ".#Z" (if hard decimal entered). Default decimal position and number of digits past the decimal point are adjustable with the maxpt and defpt parameters. Currency symbol is determined by the applicable Language Definition File (LDF). Note that the symbol may be one or two characters, with or without a space between it and the number, and it may appear before or after the number, depending on the LDF parameters. Also note that by setting defpt = -2, you can eliminate the decimal point and cents (for handling currency in whole numbers).
