aligning on a comma as a decimal point in a column
With the language setting set to French (France), shouldn't I be able to
align a column of numbers on the comma? (the number of decimal places to the right of the comma differ from one number to the next). Also, if a number is a whole number without a decimal point (again, a comma because it's for a French audience), will Word recognize that as such and align it appropriately as if it did? |

You need to go to the Regional and Language Options item in the Control
Panel and click on the Customize button on the Regional Options tab and then change the Decimal and Currency Grouping symbols appropriately. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis. Doug Robbins - Word MVP "Joyce" wrote in message ...
