point and comma decimal separated values

[ThijsBoeree]

Hi,

I'm having difficulties getting the right values when converting from string to decimal floating point...

I am recording my annotations (string values) in a BDF+ file format and sometimes the recording device is a Dutch one, writing decimal separated value wit a comma like this: 5,678    but sometimes they record in the US and then i get 5.678

Now i want to convert my string values to a decimal floating point (single) is there a way, that the converter accepts both values and allways converts them using the dutch annotation with a comma?

Best regards,

Thijs

It was an old solution for LV 6.0

Hi,

Sorry about that. I found some info and an example (LabVIEW 2011) which is attached in this feedback.
