In a calculation use:
str = FloatToString$(value, 2) (or change 2 to required number of digits...)
Then print str.. (str defined a string variable..)

Dear Martin,
Thank you for your help to date. Done as instructed. Now get to 2 decimal places but still printing only the whole number.
Sorry, I'm not very good with string manipulations etc. Please see amended as per attached.

Sorry - not at computer now.. but is your value a float?
Just looked and it's an integer value - you'll need a floating point value for your result...
