Hello @ll,

i find the reason... it`s the control "Contact Selector 1.0" which i'm using in my form.

Until this control is used on a view, no regional settings in the form are usable.
I removed this control and put it on a 2nd view, so my problem was fixed.

It seems that this is an bug in InfoPath 2007!

It's probably a SharePoint setting...Unfortunately, I don't know what setting...I've googled it, but didn't find anything...

Tell us if you solve it..

Hi Selarim,

this would be an workaround. But the customer wishes to use the comma.

I think the error causes in a setting on the SharePoint-Server. I hope i find a way to check this. I haven't administration rights on the machine

Thanks for your help

Hi, CptChaos,

Try using 1500.1 (dot instead of comma).

Hope this helps..

Could you attach your template?

Best regards,

Hello community,

i'm creating a browser enabled InfoPath-Form and publishing it to a SharePoint-Server.

The Form contains some textfields which are formatted in currency with 1 decimal place.
On the preview in InfoPath everthing is fine. I put 1500,1 into the field and InfoPath show me 1.500,1 €.

After publishing the form to SharePoint and opening the same form in my browser (IE 7) the input changes to 15,001.0 €. It seems that "," is used as a digit grouping symbol.

Operating System is Vista (english) with regional settings for germany.
SharePoint is on a Windows Server 2003 (i think also in english with regional settings for germany)

I try different settings in InfoPath like changing the formular language to german and other languages; nothing changes the situation.

Can anyone help me, what to change that my format for numbers will also correct in browser enabled forms.
I think it will be an setting in SharePoint or in FormsService but i don't find anything...

Sorry for my bad english...
