Default How to format a cell to represent Indian Currency System?

I haven't revisited this since I am on Excel 2002, which probably
has something, and whether you might have an International
version of Excel. But for Excel 2000 and earlier, for sure
handles only positive numbers. Format, custom format (all on one line)
[=10000000]##\,##\,##\,##0.00; [=100000]##\,##\,##0.00;##,##0.00

For more information see (look for paise)

especially if you need negative numbers as well-- there is a link
to a posting using a macro by Norman Harker.

I need to format cell according to Indian Currency System, e. g. *£
1, 234, 567, 890.00* in Indian accounting system would be *Rs. 1, 23,
45, 67, 890.00* I am able to correctly place the symbol Rs. by
following Format Cells Number Accouting. However am not able to
get comma in Indian style.
Someone please help me.
