Hi Esa,

RunRev expects numeric data to have a decimal point.
Therefore, you'll have to convert between 'display'
and 'calculation' format before and after calculation.
If you don't need thousand separators, then it's as
easy as:
  function Conv4Disp pNumber
    replace "." with "," in pNumber
    return pNumber
  end Conv4Disp
  function Conv4Calc pNumber
    replace "," with "." in pNumber
    return pNumber
  end Conv4Calc

Hope this helped,

Jan Schenkel.
