Hello Infopath team

could you tell me why this does not work?

What I am doing is taking values from Timar_pr_mann a repeating text box that has numbers manually entered into it and summing them up into a function box.

I would like for the users to be able to use either "," or "." as decimal separators and am trying to use the translate function translate(Timar_pr_mann,",",".") in the following formula but am having no luck fitting it in.

DOM()/my:myFields/my:group1/my:verk/my:group6/my:group7/my:Timar_pr_mann[../my:Idnadarmadur = current()/ss:Cell/ss:Data]

 Is it possible to fit it in so it translates the , to . inside the sum function as I am trying above?

thank you: steini

Ok I had hardly finished clicking post when I found this one out :-)

 Of course I simply use the translate function in the Timar_pr_mann textbox it self so: translate(., ",", ".")

Just did not think that a control could translate itself but that does not seem to be a problem.

 Thank you anyway and hope someone else can make good of this newbie question
