VADecimal

VACheck, VACombo, VAList, VAOption, VAText

Sets or returns the number of fixed decimal places for fixed decimal data type fields.

For fixed decimal numeric storage fields such as the Numeric and Decimal data types, the VADecimal property returns the number of places which should display to the right of the decimal place for the field associated with the control. The number of decimal places comes from the DDF file associated with the VAccess control in the VAccessName property of the control.

Only certain fixed-decimal numeric storage data types use this property. It is also used by the Bit data type to specify bit position. Xtrieve also used this field in the DDF dictionary to specify the value of the delimiter character for a Note field.

This property is not available at design time.
