Glenda,
Since you seeem to be talking about a text field, this one may also be
relevant. For the picture you're loooking for, try "00.00".

Glenda,
Here's the formula you need in your query:
NumAsText: CStr(Format([Number],"0.000"))
Replace [Number] with the name of your numeric field. This will work as
a Select query, or as an Append or MakeTable if you prefer.
The 'Format' function forces the three decimal places, and then the
'CStr' function converts the result into a string.
Don't you love Access?
Ray
