To all our International Users: The head of R:Dream Team, Wayne Erickson, had an opportunity to sit down with Adrian H�ssy (leading the International Developers' meeting) to discuss many issues, most importantly CURRENCY settings. It is my pleasure to inform you that effective with the official release of Update 78, to be released soon, the CURRENCY settings have been enhanced. Changing the CURRENCY CONVENTION will not change the decimal delimiter or the thousands delimiter for non-currency values. What this means is that you can change your currency to a style like "A" where the thousands delimiter is a dot and the decimal delimiter is a comma without changing the characters used for decimal points in double or real values. All conversions and displays of currency values will be looking for the characters associated with the convention, but conversions and displays for REALs, DOUBLEs, and NUMERICs will use the standard decimal point. Very Best R:egards, Razzak.
