Hi Marabu,

Microsoft information on format codes is at
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/as...036911033.aspx
in particular, the article 'Creating international number formats' may help
you.

Does anyone know where these format-codes (e.g [$-100C]) can be looked up
and how exactly they work? More specific: do these codes depend on the
language settings of Windows, of Office etc.
