Hi But Thats what I'm doing, and its not working. The string looks like "12345.12345" and the Conversion looks like
C_REAL($Number) C_TEXT($NumString) $NumString:-"12345.12345" $Number:=Num($NumString;".") On a UK system $Number = 12345.12345 On a German system $Number = 12345 any ideas would be very welcome Im considering using replace string on $numString to replace "." with the local separator, in this case "," thanks -pm On Wed, Dec 13, 2017 at 2:32 AM, Chuck Miller via 4D_Tech < 4d_tech@lists.4d.com> wrote: > Much better than my choice which was substring till the period and then num > > Regards > > Chuck > ------------------------------------------------------------ > ------------------------------------ > Chuck Miller Voice: (617) 739-0306 > Informed Solutions, Inc.
