Decimal and thousands separators

[vijo]

Hi,

Our application have both French and English-speaking users. We need to display french-style separators (like 1.234,50) for French-speaking users and english-style separators (like 1,234.50) for English-speaking users.

What is the best way to deal with that.

For periods as decimals, and commas as thousands separators do:

Code: Select all

CHGJOB DECFMT(*BLANK)

For commas as decimals and periods as thousands separators do:

Code: Select all

CHGJOB DECFMT(I)

It will use the DECFMT job attribute that's active at the time of your EXFMT to determine which to use.

Thanks a lot Scott
