Hi Paul: The same problem you have in France is valid for Spain :)
I suggest that you program the keypress routine of your numeric input classes so when comma ',' is pressed, a point '.' is used in substitution. I should not change the SET POINT or SET SEPARATOR, because these settings have an impact on various VFP functions, like transform, so in the worst case you can loose decimals y you change that.
