I didn't want to complicate the question with the fact that I am
displaying the result in an Interface Builder text field, but that
would qualify as an Applescript-Studio question. I thought this was
more of an applescript question, so I went here first.
For display purposes, how can I get the proper format?
Thanks,
John

I'm trying to convert a string to a number, so that I can use it in
an arithmetic function, but there is a problem:
set theAmount to "12345.00"
set theAmount to theAmount as number
log theAmount --> 1.2346E+4
How can I prevent the number from converting to this format?
If you're going to use it in an arithmetic function, what difference
does it make how it is displayed?
