Geez... Let's hope Flash 5 will allow extra formatting options for text
boxes and save us some of this grief... (If, Else If, Else If, Else If,
Else If, Else If...)

You're welcome (I always learn something doing these things...) But
I'll also point out that if you are going to use it, there's still
<sigh> one more thing that would need to be addressed -- more if
statements to make sure the commas don't print if there are no millions
or thousands (a smaller number). Anyway, have fun with your millions.
