Hello, Jim

Thanks for the reference.

It's not clear to me that this is relevant in my situation since I'm not using any of the ".Net" tools mentioned in the article.. If it is relevant though, I still have problems, because the "System" object referred to in the solution is not something that is available to me from Excel 2000 VBA

Does the bug discussed affect Excell 2000 VBA? If so, is there some VBA alternative to monkeying the "CultureInfo" on the current thread

Thanks for any additional suggestions that you can give

Cheers
Rand
