How to change currency format for access installation from Euro to US

47 New Member
I have received a new Windows 7 Profesional 32 bit PC with Access 2010 installed, I discoverd that the currency data type is Euro and it has the "." instead of the "," for thousands amounts,the Access help says you need to correct the PC regional settings, but I went to regional setting page an it stated the region to United States so its correct, but any way I have the Euro symbol in currency fields and the "," and "." swaped inside currency fields, how can I fix this?
any help will be appreciated

So you went to:
ControlPanel>
Clock, Language, and Region>
Change the date, time, or number format>
Additional Settings Button
*right*?

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
