Not that I'm aware of. However, you can play around with the various factory methods of NumberFormat and DateFormat to get what you want:
DecimalFormat decFormat = (DecimalFormat)NumberFormat.getInstance(); System.out.println(decFormat.toPattern()); SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = (SimpleDateFormat)DateFormat.getInstance(); System.out.println(dateFormat.toPattern()); Which, for my system, produces: #,##0.### M/d/yy h:mm a Quoting Brian Styles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Thanks Kris, > > you've been a great help.
