Question : Export Access Table into DBF, Decimal Problem

I am exporting an Access table into a dbf file.  All of my numerical fields are defaulting to 5 decimal places, no matter what the access setting.  I need to decrease this to 2 decimals for some, 3 decimals for some, and none for others.

Answer : Export Access Table into DBF, Decimal Problem

Use the format function in the sql of your export query.
Assuming fields "field0, field2, field3" from table "table1"

SELECT
Format(table1.Field0),"#") AS Field0,
Format(table1.Field2),"#.00") AS Field2,
Format(table1.Field3),"#.000") AS Field3

FROM table1

If your export is a join of tables etc just modify the statement accordingly
