How can I get 1.0E06 to read 1000000?

num2text(1000000,100)

Sorry, I should have been more specific. I need to have it display 1000000, but still keep it as a number.

thats what num2text() does.. it displays the entire number as text rather than scientifically notated(spelling?)

Yes, but it changes the numbers type to text, and I still need it as a number.

you dont actually have to change the variable,

usr <<"[num2text(1000000,100)] [1000000]"


stick that somewhere and see what happens, you could also stick a var in place of the 1000000, and it would do the same thing.. num2text DOES NOT physically change the variable
