Visio2002: Multiple Character Decimal Symbol Separator Displayed as a Single Character (289889)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Visio 2002 Standard
  • Microsoft Visio 2002 Professional
This article was previously published under Q289889
For a Microsoft Visio 2000 version of this article, see 301533.

SYMPTOMS

If you reconfigure the decimal symbol to more than one character (under Regional Options or Regional Settings on Microsoft Windows), Microsoft Visio only uses the first character specified.

NOTE: Microsoft Windows allows you to specify a decimal symbol separator up to three characters long.

CAUSE

Visio restricts all regional separators to a single byte. This behavior is consistent with known regional defaults and all Microsoft Office programs.
