Thank you, Ken. Works like a charm.
-----------------------------------------------
Here you go - this is based on a function that Mark Wieder created:
function formatThousands pNum,pSeparator
repeat with x = length(pNum)-3 to 3 step -3
put pSeparator before char x+1 of pNum
end repeat
return pNum
end formatThousands
To call it:
put formatThousands("10000000",",")
--> 10,000,000
