Report Writer String A 255

Hi,

I have run across an issue with the functionality of this local variable.  And, I'm not certain where to look for a solution.  The function should return the words from the check totals.  However the "cents" portion of the words seem to be reversed, i.e. for a Total of $200.00 :

Should Read: Two Hundred and 00 Cents

Actually Reads: Two Hundred Cents 00 and

Has anyone any idea how this is happening and how it can possibly be altered?

 

Thanks,

Gus

    Hi Bill,

    I'm very sorry for the delay.

    The regional settings were correct.  Instead I managed to sidestep the issue by applying the methods used in

    Thanks for the help.

    I seem to recall having seen this some time back and I recall it had to do with my workstations "Regional Settings" and how it was set to display currency.  I don't recall having it recently, but we are pretty consistant on the checking of the currency display for our clients.

    Let me know if this helps.
