If you want this to be the default for all Apps. you could change to that
configuration in Windows Control PanelRegional and Language OptionsRegional
OptionsCustomizeDigits Grouping.

Hi bob,

thanks for yr post. it was really helpful but i am facing a problem
for example, i use your options see below as to what happens to display

format : ##\,##\,##\,##0.00

Amount Display
100000000.00 10,00,00,000.00
100000.00 ,1,00,000.00
100.00 ,,,100.00

ie IT HAS GOT A LEADING "," . How to get rid of this now.

Thanks for your support.

HI Gord,

Tks for your reply.

But i dont get the display like i wanted 1,23,45,678.00 either i can make
that as 12,345,678.00 or 12,34,56,78.00 (ie either group it in 2's or 3's)

Check back and revert

Thanks

Okay, let's trap the length as well. Try this
[=10000000]##\,##\,##\,##0.00;[=100000]##\,##\,##0.00;##,##0.00-- HTH
