This has got to be ridiculously simple, but bear with me.
I want to print 3 real numbers, with different numbers of decimal points. I cannot find an example of the Format$() cmd with more than one variable.
Format$(a,b,c,"#.00  #.000  #.0000")
doesn't work.

Thanks
Jim

have you tried

Format$(a,"#.00")
Format$(b,"#.000")
Format$(c,"#.0000")

Thanks, Goran, for the reply.
But I was looking for a Format$ statement with more than one variable.
Something like
Format$(a, b, c, "#.000") if you want 3 decimals for all three.
If they are different numbers of decimal places, than I expect it to be slightly more complicated, but still one format$ cmd.
thanks again.
Jim

AS far as I am aware, it is not possible to achieve what you want with format function, or any other.

You could create you're own routine to do it... if you really want to (or just have multiple varialbes to format a lot):

Private Sub FormatVariables(ByVal theFormat As String, ParamArray Variables() As Variant)     Dim i As Integer          For i = LBound(Variables()) To UBound(Variables())     ' This will change the original values         Variables(i) = Format(Variables(i), theFormat)     Next End Sub Private Sub Form_Load()     Dim a, b, c, d, e, f, g As Single     Dim i As Integer          a = Rnd     b = Rnd     c = Rnd     d = Rnd     e = Rnd     f = Rnd     g = Rnd          Debug.Print a     Debug.Print b     Debug.Print c     Debug.Print d     Debug.Print e     Debug.Print f     Debug.Print g          FormatVariables "#.00", a, b, c, d, e, f, g          Debug.Print a     Debug.Print b     Debug.Print c     Debug.Print d     Debug.Print e     Debug.Print f     Debug.Print g      End Sub

THanks for the great solution.
otoh, it amazes me that "print using" is no longer an option.
I suddenly feel even older.....
