Remove Comma from an integer value

I am using crystal report 8.
I have a data base field called batch_number of type integer.
I am grouping it by batch_number.
In the report group footer i am using the Format Field and setting the
format to (1123) for the batch_number.
When the report is executed ,on the left hand side we get a Group Option which shows value that are in a group.
My problem is that the batch_number always comes with a comma
for example 10,001.In the report i am able to eliminate the comma
by using format filed dialog.
Does any one has idea on how to remove comma ?
