In Windows XP R&R xBase is not respecting the negative number format set in Regional Settings. In the Regional Settings I have it set for a - sign but the report shows the negative number in (). Is there any way to fix this?____Thanks,__Randal Ferguson__

A report will inherit the regional settings that were in place at the time that the report was created.__To change what is happening in an existing report, open the report and then open the control panel. Then in the control panel change the current setting of a - to something else and then back to the -.__This will enable the Apply button. Then click Apply, close the control panel and go back to the open report. The setting should have then changed to the -. Save the report that now has the minus as the default.____Kathleen__R&R Support
