Fox and numeric conversions depending on locale

[John Selverian]

I'm writing a program with some users in other countries.  I am trying to
get the program to use the correct number format.  If I change my windows
setting to german when I use the

setlocale(LC_ALL,"");

command in my program it correctly returns

setlocale returned 0x010c2498 "German_Germany.1252"

the problem is that I cannot enter a number like 3,1415 in a text box...it
does not accept the , as the decimal.  also, all outputted text is written
with a .

is there a way to fix this?  do I need to do something more?

thanks,

js

The current implementation of numeric conversions in FOX do not yet support
locale settings.  Sorry!

The new class FXLocale will harbor those functions.
