    I don't think so.

    What text would you want displayed?
    Cheers

    I have plain text information in one column in a table and I want to show that instead of an amount.

    I think you will need to some other method to display the information you want.
    PT display numerical information in the Data Items section of the table.

    Ok, thanks.

    I found another method I can use, but I got the answer I was looking for wether it was possible or not.
