The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows 95

SUMMARY

Windows 95 supports various currency grouping options in the Regional Settings utility in Control Panel. However, it does not currently provide functionality for "3/2" currency grouping.

MORE INFORMATION

Some countries (such as the United States) use three digits to group currency. For example:

   $123,456,789.00

Some countries (such as India and Pakistan) use three digits in the first group, and two digits in all subsequent groups. For example:

   $12,34,56,789.00

Windows 95 provides support for grouping digits in groups of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10. It does not currently provide a secondary grouping option.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows 95. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
