money format

[112055]

hello,
In the progress report Monthly.p I format the money amount like this .........format ">>9.99" but the report shows up with the money amount with commas intead of decimal place, a period.
Example:

Daiwa Bank 70,00 12,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 5,00
it should be

Daiwa Bank 70.00 12.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 5.00

Can anyone tell me if theformat I use is incorrect?

thanks,
Ann

This probably means your session is running with the -E parameter (European numeric format). Remove this from your startup command (mpro, etc) or the .pf file referenced by your startup command. If you can't get at those you'll need to modify your program to do something like:

ASSIGN SESSION:NUMERIC-FORMAT = "American".

Alternatively, you can set the thousands separator and decimal point individually:

SESSION:SET-NUMERIC-FORMAT(",",".")
