Need some help with StringFormat and an integer

[AvgGamerGuy]

I'm having trouble using StringFormat to force the output of the decimal and two zero's behind the decimal of a variable that is an integer. It's not displaying the decimal and the zero's, only the integer. I'm obviously doing something wrong. Can anyone point out my errors? I'm attaching the relevant piece of code

Func _GetTotalDue($PaymentNode);---------------------
    Local $PaymentArray = _XMLGetValue($PaymentNode)
    Local $ret_val = 0
    
    Local $FilteredNumber[15]
    Local $FilteredNumberWithDecimal[15]
    
    If IsArray($PaymentArray) Then
                
        For $T = 1 to 14
            If $T = 1 Then
                Sleep(10)
            EndIf
            $FilteredNumber[$T] = Number(StringReplace($PaymentArray[$T], ",", ""))
                    
            
            $FilteredNumberWithDecimal[$T] = StringFormat("%.2f", $FilteredNumber[$T]); here's where i'm having the problem I think <---------------
                
            $ret_val += $FilteredNumberWithDecimal[$T]
            
            Send("Payment # " & $T & " is " & $FilteredNumberWithDecimal[$T] & " Running Total is " & $ret_val & @LF); I need to send the text to Word here
            Sleep(500)
        Next
        Send(@lf)   
        Return $ret_val
        
    Else
        Return SetError(1,3,0)
        
    EndIf
EndFunc; _GetTotalDue-----------------------------------

any help would be greatly appreciated!

I'm an idiot.....answered my own question....the variable that was not showing the decimal and zeros was not $FilteredNumberWithDecimal[$T] it was $ret_val which I never used StringFormat on!

Sorry!

Hi.

As I can't know what the values are you have trouble with use this example to see how it works.

Then check with your values.

Dim $Values[7]
$Values[1]=0
$Values[2]=1000
$Values[3]=33.3
$Values[4]=0.00009
$Values[5]=123.456
$Values[6]=123.444


for $i=1 to 6
$S =StringFormat ("%.2f",$Values[$i])
MsgBox(0, "Result", $S)
Next

Regards, Rudi.
