Previously, I asked how to display numbers with two decimal places after the comma.

I have resolved that issue.

However, how can I format numerical values on the screen, such as 10000.00, as 10,000.00?

I reviewed the topic link provided in the example, but I couldn’t understand it.

> This post will describe how to reformat large numbers by adding commas to them for readability. Examples of this are reformatting “10000” to “10,000”, “1000000” to “1,000,000”, etc. This will be done by describing the blocks used in the Insert Commas Screen of [this](https://x.thunkable.com/copy/4835e2dafda1f1a2f555b95f644f0ae0) app, which takes a user-inputted number and returns it with the desired format. It can be easily adapted to suit apps which return the output of a sum. If you want to format a number which has been calculated by your app and had n…

Edit:  
What I actually want is similar to the example in the application below.

Is there a reason you’re not using the function blocks from that project?

Hello,

At first, I didn’t see a function in the code section. Then, I noticed that a function had been added at the bottom of the page.

I couldn’t find a way to copy the function from that project and add it to the current one. It looks a bit long and complex. I will try to create the same by examining it.

Thank you.

You can’t copy blocks from one project to another so you’ll have to re-create it manually.

It took a bit of effort, but I completed the entire application in the link. It is working, and in the application I prepared, I was performing mathematical operations. However, the results are incorrect due to the decimal point issue. Thank you for your attention.

I don’t know if I’ll be able to help you with this but someone else on the forums might. It’s best to provide detailed information when something doesn’t work. If you copied the blocks exactly, it should work. If it doesn’t, give an example of numbers that don’t work and what you expect them to show and what they actually show.
