    Hi,

    May we know what format you were expecting on the currency? I presume you need to have the thousands place and a decimal point?

    You should be able to easily format this value using the Masked Input widget. If you have calculated values, you can simply passed the calculation to this widget using conditional logic.

    I hope that helps.

    It would help if you could just include a masked input option for the existing number field. Unfortunately, you cannot use a Masked Input Widget field in a calculation, only as a total of a calculation as mentioned above. I still baffled by the fact that there is soooo much functionality in JotForm but I cannot display my dollar amounts in a currency format. No, I cannot use the Masked Input widget in my scenario. The alternative is to fix the Masked Input widget so that it CAN be used in calculations - either way, can we PLEASE have some way of displaying monetary amounts correctly. We are Accountants so we when we publish forms to end users, it looks very silly us not using decimal places and thousands separators!  Many thanks.
