Format Number and Currency Values with a Thousands Separator and Colors in Microsoft Access

In this Microsoft Access tutorial I'm going to show you how to properly format currency with a thousands separator.
Sophia from Charleston, South Carolina (a Platinum Member) says: I'm trying to format a currency value to show a thousands separator, so that 1000 shows up as 1,000 however numbers like 900 are showing up as 0,900 which is not what I want. Help!

When it comes to formatting the colour for debits, it changed my typing into (#,###”)[Red]”… how can I solve this ?
