Hello All,

I've seen [$-409] in some number formats and I was looking through the help files to see if I could find out what it means. I
couldn't find anything on it. I've also seen [$-F800]. Does anyone know what these codes are for or where I can find info telling
me what they are for and any others that can be used?

Thanks for any help anyone can provide,

Conan Kelly

But there is just description of 409 and some others,
Does anyone know what mean [$-F800]? Does it mean default or system culture
or something like that? Because I couldn't find such value in the table of
culture id's

Thanks
