According to Wikipedia, there is no single format predominant. The green areas in the picture below use commas, while the blue use a period. If the picture doesn’t make it through, Europe, West Africa and South America predominantly use commas, whereas The US, UK, East/Southern Africa, India, China and Australia use the period.
Your markup and changes are fine, although I think “decimal sign” would be simpler as just “decimal,” leaving “decimal separator” in the second spot. Finally, can I assume that this function correctly inserts a comma when the locale recommends it, or is it always a period? David > On Jul 30, 2017, at 3:51 AM, Frank H.
