Applying mathematical operation of string of data

[01274556865]

I am interfacing a power supply (Agilent E3631A) via GPIB. When PSU is switched on to 12v and a device is consuming 104mA current, the read vi is giving a string of data +1.04485600E-01. Now this data shown is right but I want it to appear on Front panel as 104 or 0.104 instead of exp format +1.04E-01. One way is to multiply it with 10 and one way is to divide with 100 and may be ways to convert it to a simple decimal format. Can any body help me to get simple 0.104 or 104 out of the above string please.

If this is the exact string response then you can use the Frac/Exp String to Number function to interpret the string content into a Double. You can then use a Front Panel numeric indicator with the display format set however you desire to ensure you get a rounded number. I think a format specifier of  "%.3f" should give you 0.104
