round large values to fit

 

The program checks the maximum allowed field length and if this is exceeded by any of the numbers in the column the whole column is adjusted, or the overflow number is replaced. In this case the column of rounded numbers may not add to the total but the error will only be small.

 

See the help topic: Global report settings

 

Notes

 

- The number is shown as asterisks if the number still does not fit the available space after rounding to the nearest whole number.
