hello, I have a field in my database, the field is set as currency. Now we are having a problem when insert the prices: 1. we insert the price with the dot, as the image shows 2. when we click outside the field we get the number in thousands (not as we introduce it), as the image shows. 3. then we go to the field and change the dot for a comma, as the image shows. 4. then we click outside the field and we get the right value, ( filemaker replace the comma for a dot), as the image shows please let me know how to fix this? right now we have to introduce the prices with commas to get the right value. thank you very much

We just upgrade to filemaker 16 thinking we will have better performance on our barcode inventory database..... at the time we scan barcodes in a fast way, fm16 leaves some readings incomplete... for example when scanning 10 same items with product number 802312 in a fast way , we got the first 3 records with 802312 and the next 7 records with 2312 ... filemaker 16 miss the first 2 characters... we had to downgrade to fm 15 .... i would like to know what could be the problem? I have a exit trigger script after each reading, the script contains a refresh portal and a commit, it works fine with filemaker 15
