My country is South Africa so I have the language set to English (South Africa) in the Windows regional settings options. For this country the decimal separator is a comma and not a decimal point. The comma is used for decimal numbers and currency. The thousands separator is a space and not a comma. This is how I have these set up in the Windows regional options dialog I am unable to get Calc 2.0 to display and recognise the PC's regional settings even when I set them up in the user defined cell format dialog....
I tried your language setting for a group of cells. I was able to get the date format but could not get the space recognised as a thousands separator or a comma recognised as a decimal separator. I had a look at Esperanto. That uses the separators you require. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
