[Gambas-user] Need help on format$ function

[amaiuri at ...1274...]

Hello. 
I have done what you have suggested to me. 
The function format$ show date in Spanish. 
The numbers appear with "," like decimal separator. 
The only thing that not yet appears is the separator of thousands. 

Thank you very much by its aid

Gambas needs LANG being set, and eventually LANGUAGE (a list of possible 
values of LANG, in preference order).

But the glibc library needs LC_* and he corresponding locale files to work 
correctly with dates, currency... For example, on Mandriva, if I want to be 
able to display correctly spanish dates, I have to install spanish locales.
