I"m pulling price info from a database. The price field in the database is
formatted as currency but the results page it is not showing as currency. I
tried changing the field to a text field but then it doesn't sort correctly.
How do I format the resulting field as currency ie $1,300,995 ?

Thank you - but the item I am trying to format as currency is the value of a
field from a database - how do I get that into the expression? It's a webbot.
