Hello,
I have a simple question but I didn't find yet the solution. I use an excel spreedsheat with number providing from the web. All numbers are with . separator means : 123.45 ! But I use also an international number which is only with ',' like 123,45. Would you please tell me where to find the solution to put a proper formula in each cells ? I also need to detect the choice of '.' or ',' because we will are lot people to use this excel spreedsheat. Thanks in advance for your support, Best regards. -- Ceci est une signature automatique de MesNews. Site : http://www.mesnews.net |

![]() Bibi, I suppose from your signature that you are using a non english set up. In the french set up, the decimal is often set as a comma and the thousands seperator as a point. In the english set up this is reversed. This would look like this: 1.054,54 or 1,054.54. If a computer with a UK/US setup is shown both of these, it will assume that the first one is less than 2 and probably ignore the ,54 or could even throw it into the next cell. As far as I know you can't have both systems on the same computer and in fact you have to define what punctuation mark (comma or point) you intend to use as a decimal seperator (Start/Settings/Control Panel/ Regional Options) One or the other, but not both - you will have to try a majority vote! -- Jon Quixley ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jon Quixley's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=25803 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=392755 |
