A decimal variable with a "," - right or not?


Hi,

in one of our apps, there is a numeric variable "vCost".

As it is, it's written with the "," as decimal separator.

That is also specified on the "Main" tab of the script - and in the diagram, it does seem to work.

QlikView underlines it in the variable_manager, however.

What about this? Is it right with the "," or not?

Thanks a lot for some clarification!

Best regards,

DataNibbler

If you want, convert into a Num#() expression

=num#('1,3','##0,0')

Hi,

I think I've made it - I'm not sure whether the settings rgd. this in the script are at all relevant on GUI-level?

Anyway, I have now corrected the variable - with the "." - and made another one based on it with the German numeric format (the "," as decimal_separator).

Now it works and all the data is displayed.

Best regards,
