View 8 RepliesI have a app that updates an Access Database via a datagrid view. I'm updating two column of type Single. The code works perfectely when the regional settings are default US-EN.For computers running in germany an update to the backend database throw a datatype mismatch error. I change the decimal separator on the computer with 'German' for region settings from Comma (,) to (.) period and everything works fine.I add thread culture to US-ENG at the startup of the application. Now the error disappears but then 2.5 is now stored as 25 in the access database.
I add these lines at the beginning of the application soon after the designer code
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = New System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US") System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = New System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US")

I have a datagridview which is bounded to a table m_table constructed in my code. A column named price has decimal type.
DGV.DataSource = m_table
DGV.Columns(columnPrice).ValueType = System.Type.GetType("System.Decimal")
All prices are in decimal. But I found that when clicking the column header of DGV, the price column is sorted like a string. For example:
9.0, 13.5, 8->13.5, 8, 9.0
But I want sort numerically, that is 8,9.0,13.5
I wonder why decimal type cannot be sorted numerically. How to achieve this?
