Converting A Comma To A Period?

Feb 3, 2009

So basically, my program is going around the world, and it has come to my realization that certain places use commas instead of periods for decimals points. So herein lies my problem. If the computer's local language is German, then the program will accept commas, but then errors are produced with periods, and vice versa with an American computer. So my question is, is it possible to make the program permanently use periods, and then have a function that can convert any commas to periods?

Decimal Symbol: Period Or Comma?

Sep 29, 2010

My chemistry calculations program, written in Visual Studio 2008, VB.Net (Win XP), gives completely wrong results when a Comma is used as Decimal Symbol.The calculations are only correct with a Dot (.) as Decimal Symbol.How can I make the calculation results independent of the Decimal Symbol? (Dot or Comma)?(For example Excel calculates correctly with a Dot or Comma as Decimal Symbol)I have found an old thread adressing the same problem, but no simple and easy solution was given.

Detect Culture Of Number Period Or Comma For Decimal Point / Thousands Separator?

Jul 1, 2011

In VB.Net, is there a way of auto-detecting the culture of a string representation of a number? I'll explain the situation:Our asp.net web site receives xml data feeds for boat data. Most of the time, the number format for the prices use either a simple non-formatted integer e.g. "999000". That's easy for us to process.Occaisionally, there are commas for thousands separators and periods for the decimal point. Also, that's fine as our data import understands this. Example "999,000.00".We're starting to get some data from France where some of the prices have been entered with the periods and thousands separators the other way around as that's the way it's done in many European countries. E.g. "999.000,00". This is where our system would interpret that as nine hundred and ninety nine pounds instead of the nine hundred and ninety nine thousand pounds that was intended.

Converting A Comma Delimited File To Two Variables?

Jul 11, 2010

I recently asked a question about reading a file with Streamreader to variables arrays, but I made it more complicated than need be. Here is the simple version of what I am trying to do:

dim MyNumber(1) as String

strMyFile = 100,200 (I already have this)This is the result that I am trying to make happen:

MyNumber(0)=100
MyNumber(1) =200

I would also like the result to be MyNumber(0), MyNumber(1) as double, but I could do that in a later step. This is almost embarrassing to ask, because it is probably basic stuff.
