texte = I have a field called price setup as a float. An item costing $20.00 wouldshow in the table as simply 20. I need to format the price to 2 decimalplaces. When I run the following query, I get a weird number like1078034432:SELECT thumb,title,itemid,price FROM items where viewable='Yes' ORDER BYRAND() limit 2;When I try to format the field in the following query, I get nothing:SELECT thumb,title,itemid,price,FORMAT(price,2) FROM items whereviewable='Yes' ORDER BY RAND() limit 2;On 8/21/05 6:21 AM, "Thierry Almy"
