Thanks Steve, that was indeed very simple. However, I have stumbled across an seemingly strange (at first blush) issue. There is a module called fpformat that will allow for floating point formatting. fpfloat.py is /lib/python2.1/fpfloat.py It is available to Products, but not to python scripts. My question is, if I do what Andreas says and have a product called FP, with a python file called fpfloat.py and an appropriate __init__.py script, will that interfere with anything? Instead, what if I modified PythonScript.py and simply added "import fpfloat" (and restarted Zope)? Ron

...

Is there an easier way to simply have a float display (round) to two decimal places, rather than monkeying around with the access restrictions? I can add the '$' to the string.

print "$%9.2f" return printed
