Changing Currency format interact with Delimiter settings (RBase
7.1.77.30908).
International users have to change currency to support local currency and
keyboard. To allow changes, they have first to change delimiter too. But
changed delimiter settings produce problems with OTERRO access, also it's
not possible to change Currency (->Delimiter) settings without changing
programs and variable-lists.

Additional Discussion
--------------------------
There was an inquiry to make Currency format dependent from
Windows-Control-Panel settings, but this is dangerous. When two station with
different settings connect to the same database, they will influence each
other. 
Perhaps we get an UDF which set rbase-settings to control-panel-settings. So
the developer is free to make it dependent of Windows or not.

History
---------
Status October: Have discussed this problem with Wayne Erickson. He think
about a way to make the currency-format independent from delimiter, which
means, that the same character could be used for currency and delimiter.
Status November 9: Razzak report, that the problem will be solved with
upcoming R:Base 7.1 update 78.

Many thanks to the RBase Team!
