  • 1.  thousands separator Get Info window

    Morning, 

    Please can someone remind me how to format UK National Grid Reference in the Get Info window so it displays without the thousands separator common? ie so location x: 123456.78 NOT 123,456.78.

    Thanks in advance

    Alison

    Morning Alison

    For numbers and dates for that matter, MapInfo Pro uses the Regional Settings to control the display.

    If you want numbers not to show using the thousand separator, you must change your Regional Settings for this character to an empty string.

    Alternatively, you could change the column type from Float to Char, allowing you more control over the value displayed.

    Morning Peter, 

    Thank you - I had completely forgotten it was a Windows setting!
