You can specify formats for four types of numeric values - positive, negative, zero (0), and null (undefined). Just remember that Access automatically applies any custom formats that you use in a table field, to a control in a form or report if it is bound (linked). The characters can be placeholders (such as 0 and #), separators (such as periods and commas), literal characters, and colors based on how you want the formatting to be. To create a custom format, you’ll enter various characters in the Format property of a table field. Formatting only changes how the data is displayed and does not affect how the data is stored or how users enter data.

When you apply a format to a table field, that same format is automatically applied to any form or report control that you subsequently bind to that table field. With number and currency formatting you have three choices: keep the default formats, apply a predefined format, or create a custom format. The Number (including Large Number) and Currency Data Types have a wide variety of formats to help meet your unique circumstances.
