Sorry.  Didn't see you wanted output formatted.  I think there is a way to 
specify output display function.  I can't remember what it is.  I used to use it to force the display into engineering format instead of scientific.  Now I just use // EngineeringForm when I need it.

Hi everyone,

What is the simplest way to display output in non-scientific notation?  I have descriptive statistics that I would like to display as 13,957,636.8843 (despite the meaninglessness of the digits to the right of the decimal) instead of 1.39576 x 10^6?

Much obliged,

Gregory
