Default Use of the comma in formatting numbers - Excel 2007

Interesting, is your region in Windows set to US?

Thanks for the response Bob I. However That's what I've done but I get this
unexpected format. Here's what I mean....

I start with 1000000000
when I select the options as you have said I get 1000000,000 and not
1,000,000,000

That's basically the problem.
