    Posted: 29 Jul 2009 at 2:13pm
I am trying to format the number in a field so that it will have no more than 2 decimal places, but fewer if appropriate.  In other words, I want it to display data as 4 or 4.5 or 4.25, but not 4.00 or 4.50.  I'm using CR 2008.  Can you help me with this?

There is probably a more elegant solution but try this:
Right click on the field and select Format Field.
Select the Number tab
click on Customize
UNder the Number Tab add a formula to the Decimals as:
if right(totext({table.numberfield},2),2)="00" then 0 else
if right(totext({table.numberfield},2),1)="0" then 1 else 2
