Syntax error Format amount values for thousands number with two decimal places in MySQL?

Format amount values for thousands number with two decimal places in MySQL?

For thousands number, use MySQL FORMAT(). Let us first create a −

mysql> create table DemoTable1394
   -> (
   -> Amount decimal(7,3)
   -> );
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.68 sec)

Insert some records in the table using insert −

mysql> insert into DemoTable1394 values(60);
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.15 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable1394 values(2355.4);
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.27 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable1394 values(456);
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.12 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable1394 values(8769);
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.13 sec)

Display all records from the table using select −

mysql> select * from DemoTable1394;

This will produce the following output −

+----------+
| Amount   |
+----------+
|   60.000 |
| 2355.400 |
|  456.000 |
| 8769.000 |
+----------+
4 rows in set (0.00 sec)

Here is the query to format for thousands number with two decimal places −

mysql> select format(Amount,2) from DemoTable1394;

This will produce the following output −

+------------------+
| format(Amount,2) |
+------------------+
| 60.00            |
| 2,355.40         |
| 456.00           |
| 8,769.00         |
+------------------+
4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
