Regional Settings Problem

[Luis Lanuza]

Hi all,

I can't get Visual Studio 2003 to recognize my WindowsXP SP2 regional
settings.
For ex: On Control Panel / Regional Settings / Regional Options Tab, my
standadrs and formats corresponds to English (United States), where for
example, if you see on the Customize secction, the default decimal symbol is
a dot the digit group symbol is a comma.

The problem I have is that VS2003 wont recognize those settings, and is
using comma as Decimal symbol and so on...

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Luis Lanuza.

Stupid question on my part...
Are you using System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICul ture in
stead of CurrentCulture? If you have windows in English, you'll won't see
the regional settings. You need to use
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCultu re.

HTH,
