4168.0. "Problem with comma tab marker on German system" by RTOEU::RTOEU::DAGSPC::DEGERTON (Dagmar Egerton @RTO, 865-3553) Mon May 16 1994 14:45
We just upgraded our first internal system to ALL-IN-1 V3.0 here in
Germany. We run a dual-language system, with English as the primary
language and German as an additional language.
Users have begun reporting problems using the "," in their rulers from
German ALL-IN-1/WPS-PLUS. The comma as a tab marker is no longer
recognized, and they are forced to enter a "." instead. However,
numbers in German are expressed as nnn.nnn,nn (the reverse of English).
The result of this is that numbers are not aligned properly.
For example:
Ruler should be:
L----T------------------,----------R
Line item 1 105,90DM
Line item 2 1.400,00DM
----------
Total 1.505,90DM
Ruler instead only works as follows:
L----T------------------.----------R
Line item 1 105,90DM
Line item 2 1.400,00DM
--------------
Total 1.505,90DM
Someone tested the same on a German-only V3.0 system and was able to use
the comma tab marker without any problems.
Any ideas on how to resolve this?
Thanks in advance,
Dagmar Egerton

| Dagmar,
Call the german CSC? there are lots of WPS-PLUS changes since V3.0
(which is over 2 years old) you may want to upgrade to V3.0A and see if
the errors go away.
