When you specify comma format (2,55) as a data value in the Data Value field of the Form Field Validation dialog box, you may receive the following error message in your Web browser when you submit the form:
Please enter a value greater than or equal to "2,55" in the "fieldname" field.
Please enter a value less than or equal to "2,55" in the "fieldname" field.
CAUSE
FrontPage does not recognize the comma as a decimal delimiter in the Value box of the Data Value section, even if the comma is specified as the decimal delimiter.
RESOLUTION

- Click to select the Comma option for Numeric Format. Note that there are two options for Numeric Format; Grouping and Decimal. This problem occurs using either format.
- For the Data Value, click to select the Field Must Be: check box.
- Click to select Greater Than or Equal To from the list.
- Type a number in decimal format, using the period as the decimal delimiter.
Example:
2.55
