>I guess that boils down to this line:
lcValue = Format(tnValue, lcFormat) + "$"
which is using the legacy Microsoft.VisualBasic.Strings stuff. I don't really remember how that worked but I think it translates based on the Windows locale rather then the .NET current culture. Why not just use the .NET .ToString() methods e.g.:
Public Function GetFormatValueDollar(ByVal tnValue As Double, ByVal nLanguage As Integer) As String
>        Dim info As CultureInfo
>        Select Case nLanguage
>            Case 1
>                info = New CultureInfo("en-US")
>            Case Else
>                info = New CultureInfo("fr-CA")
>                ' If you want different separators:
>                info.NumberFormat.CurrencyDecimalSeparator = "."
>                info.NumberFormat.CurrencyGroupSeparator = ","
>
>        End Select
>        Return tnValue.ToString("c", info)
>    End Function
Thank you, I will use that.
