Remove Leading Zeros for Decimal field

[DWS]

I think there should be some posts for this type topic. But I could not find them. If anyone of you knows this, please let me know.

Thank you very much in advance.

General speaking this issue is:

When a dataset file with a decimal field is created, it will formate leading zeros if necessay.

My question is: how to remove the leading zeros?

My question is: why worry about them? If you really want to store the number without them, you'll need to convert it to and store it as a string.

There are no leading zeroes stored in the Data Set. These are only added when the data are displayed. (They are also added when decimal values are converted to string, such as when writing to a text file.)

Aha... trick question!
