    Numeric string to text and remove punctuation

    Reply Contact
    I am writing a CR report to take data and create a properly formatted import file.The constituent ID is a numeric string. It displays as 1,111,111.00. I need it to be a 1111111. Any ideas? I can convert it to a text field but cannot figure out how to remove the punctuation and .00.

     Thanks

    I figured it out. I was making it harder than it needed to be. I needed to put the field in the report and change the formatting...Oh well, it was late when I was working on it. Big Smile

    Thanks!
