Wojtek, Rene
An extract from the Docu for CtlsRealField showing some of the
formatting options available. It has other advantages - see the Docu.
Also, for engineering or scientific applications, do look at CtlsUnitField.
"Some examples, with level = -6, and "Kill trailing '0's" not checked, are:
Fixed significant figs: unchecked unchecked checked checked
Max digits: unchecked checked unchecked checked
Link = x
