Regarding “Validating Numeric Input”

Why Trust Us

The tip you published on page 70 of the September 1996 issue of VBPJ on “Validating Numeric Input” was a good tip. However, the function failed to take into account the use of the comma (,) as the decimal separator. The United States uses the period, but Europeans tend to use the comma. To correct this problem, use the value of the “sDecimal” variable from “win.ini.”
