Format commands apply to members that follow the commands. The report begins each new page with the formats in place at the end of the previous report page. For example, if a report page ends with two decimal places, the following page begins with two decimal places. This report demonstrates the use of several important format commands:

• DECIMAL-The script for this report specifies the DECIMAL 0 format command before the Sales member.

• SUPBRACKETS-By default, negative numbers are enclosed in brackets, ( ). The SUPBRACKETS format command causes negative numbers to be output with a minus sign.

• UDATA-The UDATA command places underline characters under data columns. The character is specified within double quotes. The default is a double underline.
