format mask not working for "Display text" item

588400Aug 16 2007 — edited Aug 16 2007
Hi
I have a hidden variable p1_sum. I have a process that assign a value to p1_sum. something like
p1_sum := 44000;

Now I have a page where I have an item of type "Display as Text". In the source I hae the following

<b><font color="#FF0000">P1_SUM.</font></b>

Now just at the end of source part, you can see that tyou can define format mask. I want to put a dollar sign and commas for big values. So I select FML999G999G999G999G990D00

but when I run the page. The amount is simply getting displayed as 44000 not like $44,000.
Can anyone see what the problem could be??
Thanks a lot
