Use
This command is used instead of the (x.y) accuracy to specify the output format of a variable.
Syntax:
[x0.y0[z];]:
Defines the default value to be used for variable that do not have default values. If you do not specify anything, the default value (1.6) is used.
[#<Variable1>=x1.y1[z];]:
The variable uses the format x1.y1 if it is a numeric variable.
[#<Variable2>=x2.y2[z];]:
The variable uses the format x2.y2 if it is a numeric variable.
The variable can also be a field index. [z] defines the number of subsequent zeros that should be suppressed.
If the first part (figures before the decimal point) is omitted, the value "1" is defaulted; if the number of figures after the decimal point is not specified, the default value is used.
In WINDOWS, the part before the decimal point has no function, and is always regarded as being "1", regardless of the value defined in the /prec command.
Example of Default Format 1.6 (does not apply to Windows):
