CURRENCYFMT

The CURRENCYFMT structure contains information that defines the format of a currency string. The GetCurrencyFormat function uses this information to customize a currency string for a specified locale.

typedef struct _currencyfmt { 
  UINT      NumDigits; 
  UINT      LeadingZero; 
  UINT      Grouping; 
  LPTSTR    lpDecimalSep; 
  LPTSTR    lpThousandSep; 
  UINT      NegativeOrder; 
  UINT      PositiveOrder; 
  LPTSTR    lpCurrencySymbol;
} CURRENCYFMT, *LPCURRENCYFMT; 

Members

NumDigits

Specifies the number of fractional digits. This is equivalent to the locale information specified by the LCTYPE constant value LOCALE_IDIGITS.

LeadingZero

Specifies whether to use leading zeroes in decimal fields. This is equivalent to the locale information specified by the LCTYPE constant value LOCALE_ILZERO.

Grouping

Specifies the size of each group of digits to the left of the decimal. Values in the range 0 – 9 are valid.

lpDecimalSep

Pointer to a null-terminated decimal separator string.

lpThousandSep

Pointer to a null-terminated thousand separator string.

NegativeOrder

Specifies the negative currency mode. This is equivalent to the locale information specified by the LCTYPE constant value LOCALE_INEGCURR.

PositiveOrder

Specifies the positive currency mode. This is equivalent to the locale information specified by the LCTYPE constant value LOCALE_ICURRENCY.

lpCurrencySymbol

Pointer to a null-terminated currency symbol string.
