Re: WebCat2 - [format thousands]
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 1997
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 10513
interpreted = N
texte = >Is [format thousands] smart enough to know when the data it's formatting>has been preformatted?No. You have to feed it a true number without any commas. Apologies to non-US customers, but for now any numbers you store in your database that you want to work inside [math] and [format] contexts must be stored using a decimal point . for fractions rather than a comma.You are allowed to _output_ the number with European-style decimal delimiters by using the [format] context, but the original must be American-style.Grant Hulbert, V.P.
