This will typically happen when the textbox isn't wide enough for the number.
This could be as simple as opening the form in design view and enlarging the
textbox a little bit.

The two machines could have different installed fonts or different screen
drivers, which might explain the different behavior.

Tried that on both machines. Same ###### on the other.
