Hi Doug,

Perhaps you'd forgotten to enclose the switch expression with double quotes, which you can often get away with for just the standard
single-format expression.

And of course, I cannot replicate the error that I was getting the other day.

Hi Doug,

Yes, that should have been:
{=Text1*Text2 \# "£,0.00;-£,0.00;"}
My bad.

Hi Doug,

There you go making it dificult again ...

Only because on the machine on which I was trying it, I was getting a Syntax error message. But now when I use your
construction (minus the second \#, which causes a Too many picture switches error message) it works.

I have no idea why what I had tried earlier did not work, but will try it again when I get to that machine.
