>>>How is it specified currently? SET CURRENCY TO will change the currency symbol. But if it's encoded into a character string, you can use a ReportListener object and intercept the incoming string and replace all instances of the $ with something else.

>>>You can also open up each .FRX file as a .DBF and update the value you'd like to change if you have a way to set it globally. To find out what to change, copy the report, delete everything except the one thing you want to change as an example, and then compare the two frx files together using sys(2007, x) where x is each field name tested one-by-one in a loop until you find out which fields have changed.

>>I don't think I have SET CURRENCY TO anywhere in the app; I think it is a literal dollar sign in the reports. So, I will need to change all reports to use the currency symbol and use the SET CURRENCY TO. I don't want to hack the .FRX files.

I have never used ReportListener and don't know how much work is involved in changing hundreds of reports to use the ReportListener. Something to explorer.
