o_point2comma(a)

a: scalar Text - numbers as input string

return: Text -  string with "." replaced by ","

Usage

Example

o_comma2point("23.45   24.34   89.01") returns "23,45   24,34   89,01"

Notes

The world is split between two major groups that use a decimal radix of "," or ".". This function is provided as a quick way to switch between the two when presenting numbers in Text format. Note that strReplace() would also work but it uses loops so this one is faster.
