As an addition to the discussion of Currency format A,B,C from an international point of view consider this:
In Sweden we have åäöÅÄÖ other countries have other characters. Bill Gates caused a lot trouble going from Dos to windows. In a lot of programs I have this line of codes so I can stay in dos but utilise ODBC for excel queries set case on set v vdos to '†„Ž”™ åÅäÄöÖ' *(† å) set v v1d to (char(134));set v v1w to (char(229)) *( Å) set v v2d to (char(143));set v v2w to (char(197)) *(„ ä) set v v3d to (char(132));set v v3w to (char(228)) *(Ž Ä) set v v4d to (char(142));set v v4w to (char(196)) *(” ö) set v v5d to (char(148));set v v5w to (char(246)) *(™ Ö) set v v6d to (char(153));set v v6w to (char(214)) set v vwin to (srpl(.vdos,.v1d,.v1w,0));set v vwin to (srpl(.vwin,.v2d,.v2w,0)) set v vwin to (srpl(.vwin,.v3d,.v3w,0));set v vwin to (srpl(.vwin,.v4d,.v4w,0)) set v vwin to (srpl(.vwin,.v5d,.v5w,0));set v vwin to (srpl(.vwin,.v6d,.v6w,0)) write .vdos ' ' .vwin set case off it converts from DOS to Windows character set Please help me to encourage RDCC to replace it with a function like ‘set v vwin to (swin(.vdos))’ (and at the same time set v vdos to (sdos(.vwin)) should it ever be required to go from windows character set to dos (and I have such a Case)) . I know we should all be mowing to windows but old habits die hard and in DOS I can focus on the business problem, when I am in windows I must focus to much on appearance. But slowly slowly even I make the move but yet for a time we live in both dos world and windows world Kontema IT AB Gunnar Ekblad Hästholmsvägen 32 131 30 NACKA Tel +46 8 814 59 00 Mobil +46 705455038 E-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
