Are you using this in Crystal Syntax or Basic Syntax?

Where exactly in Crystal are you using the formula?

In the report footer I am trying to sum the field and make it come out with the leading zero's . like if the sum amount is 7325.00 i need it to read
000000732500
 
I have the field where it is summing already.
Thanks,

Does this work...
Create a formula field as "ConvertedSum" with the formulas of:
 
ToText((SUM({table.fieldtosum})*100),'000000000000')
 
Place the formula field in the report footer.

Sorry, did not know it was a currency value.
ToText(tonumber((SUM(({table.fieldtosum}))*100)),'000000000000')
