I'm using Adobe Designer 7.0 to design a form that have some numeric fields I'm adding together and dividing. I'm using the calculate, FormCalc for these but I need one field to show as a percentage.

I have fields abond_forfeit1/total_abond where 7000/100,000 = 0.07.

How can i get it to display as 7%?? I"m new to this so I would appreciate any help.

Thanks

You need to set the "Display Pattern" to "zz9.99%". And I would use the decimal field so you can set the leading number of digits and decimal places.

More information about Numeric patterns is available in the Scripting reference under LiveCycle Designer's help menu.

You can manually enter any pricture format you want. More information is available in the Scripting Reference under LiveCycle Designer's menu 'Help' option.
