Have a rather simple question.

I have a single characteristic that I would like to report to 5 decimal places while keeping the rest of the report at 4 decimal places. Change the decimal place to 5 on a single characteristic...does anyone know if this can be done? ~ Thanks in advance

Oh, my word Tom that was too easy, I should have known. Next time I'll make it worth your while and give you a real doozy. Thanks much!

Nice! I'm in the habit of giving the measured elements of any 3-decimal position as 4-decimal numbers (i.e., always 1 significant figure better than than the positional tolerance called for). This will make my printouts look more professional, rather than rounding the machine calculated position manually.
