Andres reported (off-list) that the n5.2 format is showing 0.76 as 0076, and I discovered the same thing when I tried it. In that case, you may have to resort to a custom currency, as shown in the 2nd post of this thread from comp.soft-sys.stat.spss (mind the line-wrap):

Use an N-format rather than an F-format. E.g.,
format x y z (n5.2).

Hello:
Maybe thios is a very basic question but I haven't found a way to do it
(or maybe it's not posible to do it)
If a have a numeric variable, and I type 0.76 it is show as .76. Is there
any way to show it as 0.76?
Thank you
Andrés
