How to add thousands separator for all rows in a column in sql server

Question

I have a table "detail" with column "amount". I would like to add thousand separator comma to the value in "amount" column and limit to 2 decimal. For instance: 20123.45323 will be 20,123.45.

How can I do it? Thanks.

Answer 1

Use the Format function in MySQL. It would look like this:

SELECT FORMAT(amount, 2) FROM detail;
