Column format using SQL

Question

HI Thanks for the reply.
IF I want to format the OPP_VALUE column How do I do format using sql
Do I have to do it when I create the table? I loaded these data using spread sheet.
I tried
SELECT distinct tab.CUSTOMER, tab.SC, tab.HOURS,tab.OPP_VALUE, tab.opp_val_rank
FROM
(SELECT CUSTOMER, SC, HOURS, column OPP_VALUE format 999,999 OPP_VALUE, DENSE_RANK() OVER (order by OPP_VALUE DESC) opp_val_rank
FROM FMW_ANALY) tab
WHERE opp_val_rank<=10;
I'm getting error ORA-00936: missing expression
