RequestMoneyAsNumber May Return Error "Return List_price Must Be a Number Between 0 and 2147483648" (175951)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Commerce Server 2.0
This article was previously published under Q175951 SYMPTOMS
When you use the Page.RequestMoneyAsNumber datafunction in Commerce Server,
you may experience the following error message:
list_price must be a number between 0 and 2147483648
CAUSE
One cause for this error message is that the RequestMoneyAsNumber function
uses the Number settings, rather than the Currency settings, for a specific
locale. This only happens in cases where the Number format and the Currency
format are not identical, such as Local &H041D (Swedish). The Swedish
locale uses the following formats:
Number : 1 234,56
Currency: 1.234,56
Note the group separator of a space in the Number format and the dot in the
Currency format.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, you can do any of the following:
- Do not use any digit grouping symbol.
- Use a space as the digit grouping symbol.
- In the case of a Swedish locale, use the Danish locale in
RequestMoneyAsNumber, as in the following example:
File name: _UPDATE.ASP
Change the following:
list_price = mscsPage.RequestMoneyAsNumber("list_price", null, 0,
2147483648)
To:
list_price = mscsPage.RequestMoneyAsNumber("list_price", null, 0,
2147483648, 1030)
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Commerce Server
versions 2.0 and 3.0. We are researching this problem and will post new
information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
