Display all digits, not exponents in Access

In Access 2003 Form, the display for "160,000,0000,000" is "1.6E+11".  How do I get it to display the 000's, not exponentials?

maharlika,

<You can define a custom display format exactly as you wish>
Yes!
There a lot of cool formats you can create on your own to make the numbers look the way you want.
For example:
Custom Format      Entry      How it Appears
$#,##0.000,, "M"      1234567      $1.235 M
$#,##0,, "M"      1234567      $1 M
(From John Walkenbach, Excel 2000 Power Programming With VBA)

Have fun!
:)
