Displays commas in type FLOAT

I'm writing a SQL script. I'd like to display the value I have in a
column of type FLOAT so that it appears with the commas in the correct
place. It displays now as 10000000.0; I'd like it to display as
10,000,000. Thanks for any help."Rick Charnes" <rickxyz--nospam.zyxcharnes@.thehartford.com> wrote in message

Your front-end application should really be doing this type of work, not the
database itself.

money (not good) and then use function "convert" to cast it to varchar with
style 1.
Example:
use northwind
go
select
convert(varchar(25), cast(cast(orderid as float) as money), 1)
from
dbo.orders

Display Reporting Services in Blackberry

Attempting to render a report in mobile blackberry. The report viewer
displays, and the report generates, but eventually freezes and no data
appears.
Blackberry 5 OS
SQL Reporting Services 2005 (SP2)
Blackberry browser with IE emulation and javascripts enabled on
client.
Any other blackberry users attempting to view reporting services?
Thanks.
RobThough I have not yet discovered the procedure for successfully
displaying a dynamic report within a reportviewer, it did discover a
work around that might be the next best thing. For a little
background, I do have reporting services integrated with sharepoint
services 3.0. A user can go to his/her web site or workspace shared
documents and build a report or subscribe to an existing report in
their list.
So, for example: Customers.rdl and it's datasource actually exist as
documents in the shared document list. This is accomplished by adding
these content types to the shared documents list.
1) I subscribed to the report using the sharepoint web form.
2) Select the report from the dropdown list in the shared documents
list.
3) Select "Manage subscriptions"
4) Set up a subscription to run "hourly" and select "web page" as the
format type.
5) Give your subscription document a name. i.e. myreport.html
5) Have the subscription sent to //<yoursharepointserverpath>/shared
documents/
Now from your blackberry browser, navigate to the name
(myreport.html).
