Must have been added by someone else after I worked on it. I thought about that issue but felt that that was the wrong solution. The problem is that the same data displays differently depending on who runs the query. I would have rather made that part of the column definition similar to how we create timestamps with or without timezones. If a column is tracking Yen it should always be Yen. Y10,000 should never display as $100.00 just because the locale changes. -- D'Arcy J.M.
