Apologize for such a basic question but I cannot figure it out.  When I use the format below for numbers in the millions, it comes out as $n.n M, but a number in billions only comes out as $ n B, I would like to add the decimal place so that $1.5 billion would read as $1.5 B, not $1 B.  Thanks!

 

proc format;   
	picture money (fuzz=0)
	-1000000000000000-<-1E12='0000 T' (prefix='-$' mult=1E-012)
	-1000000000000-<-1E09='0000 B' (prefix='-$' mult=1E-09) 
	-1000000000-<1E06='0000 M' (prefix='-$' mult=.000001)
	1E06-<1000000000='0000 M' (prefix='$' mult=.000001)
	1E09-<1000000000000='0000 B' (prefix='$' mult=1E-09)
	1E12-<1000000000000000='0000 T' (prefix='$' mult=1E-012);
