Number and Currency in Indian Format RRS feed

  • Question

  • I have used Ms-Access 2003 and 2007 for creating account database. Every thing is working perfect, except the problem in Number and Currency format. It shows values in English (American) format instead (i.e., 123,456,789) of Indian Format (i.e.,12,34,56,789.00) in Access Report. Though I have made sufficient changes in "Regional and Language" in "Control Panel".

  • Hello,

    The issue does exist in Office 2007. The Region settings work fine in Office 2010-2016, so I suggest you use Office 2010 and above.

    Regards,

  • Make sure all currency  fields in all your reports and forms are set to "Currency" format. After you made the regional format changes they may need to be re-set.

    How do you change the settings?

    Please go to Control Panel ->Clock, Language, and Region -> Region -> Change date, time, or number formats

    Change Formats into English (India) in the Formats tab.

    Restart your database, the format would be changed.

    Regards,
