Data Entry formats

Hi all,

I have a client who has a solution with two different table types. One of them uses US-style date and decimal formatting (from a US version of FMP), and the others use European-style date and decimal formatting (from non-US version of FMP). The problem is that various tables in the solution originated from various sources (why? I don't know).

This is not a problem for any display options, as those can be dealt with easily. The problem lies in data entry. A US version will not allow users to enter a date in Euro-style (DDMMYY), nor will it accept decimal 'commas' as is common in Europe. (For example, in the US it's $2,500.25, and in Europe $2.500,25).

Anyhoo, long story short, does anyone know how to reset tables to behave in US or non-US style for data entry purposes? This client's running their solution on NT off of FM Server 5.

Muchos thanks,

Make clones on the same machine and than re import data. smirk.gif
