Syntax

expression.DecimalPlaces

expression   A variable that represents a ListDataFormat object.

Remarks

Example

The following example returns the setting of the DecimalPlaces property for the third column of a list in Sheet1 of the active workbook.

Visual Basic for Applications 
  Function GetDecimalPlaces() As Long
    Dim wrksht As Worksheet
    Dim objListCol As ListColumn
   
    Set wrksht = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
    Set objListCol = wrksht.ListObjects(1).ListColumns(3)

GetDecimalPlaces = objListCol.ListDataFormat.<strong>DecimalPlaces</strong>



End Function
