Question

Is there a format string (?) I can pass to the VB6 Format function that will perform digit grouping? I want to replace the question mark in this statement…

Debug.Print Format(123456789, '?') 

…with a string that will generate the following output:

123,456,789 

The predefined format string ‘Standard’ comes close, but it tacks a decimal point and two 0’s on the end:

? Format(123456789, 'Standard') 123,456,789.00 

Answer 1

As I was typing the question I took another glance at the documentation and spotted the answer, but I went ahead and posted it anyway. Here it is:

Debug.Print Format(123456789, '#,##0')
