Hey Guys, I need to get an output out of if else if which is numerical input and output. the Input reads 111,222,333 But output comes as 111222333 Is there a way to still hold the input with comma separator as the output of if-else-if? Thank you guys! Regards, Dilip ---

Depends what the if-then-else is referring to other than the input column, and how those columns are configured. Please show screen shots of: - the if-then-else column configuration - all columns that it refers to ---

Okay. You would need to trace the source of each of those columns. But… an easier option is to just add a Math column, point it at your if-then-else column, and re-apply the formatting. ---

Thank you for the solution Darren, I did that actually , As it would need adding of another column I was wondering Would that be an ideal way or would there be any other way without having to add extra column? Regards, Dilip ---

I don’t know. I would need to look at every single column that feeds into that if-then-else column, and every single column that feeds into every single one of those, and so on, all the way back to the first non-computed column, and confirm that every column that is referenced in the whole chain is a number type. I don’t have the time or energy to lead you through that. But you’re quite welcome to have a go at it by yourself, it could be a good learning exercise. ---

To me it seems that you are using a comma separator in your initial math columns and the single value columns are keeping this configuration. The if-then-else else column is changing the format of the number and removing the comma separator. As Darren suggested, you could add a math column after your if-then-else column for the single purpose of reformatting your numbers with the comma separator. Ideally, the if-then-else column would keep the original formatting or have a number-formatting option, but it doesn’t yet. ---
