Where can I read this article? I want to check if submited by me is better? "...Ability to type is not enough to become a Programmer. Unless you type in VB. But then again you have to type really fast..." Me

Thats what we are talking about it is gone. I don't know if it was the guy who deleted it, cause he was getting reamed, or if the almight Chris did :) Code4Food ---- "There is no try; only do or do not" -Yoda

It might be something you post in big red letters at the top of the article posting thing (or whatever it is you do, I haven't written any articles :-)) I had an idea for an article, but I thought it was too silly: "A practical introduction to web services in .NET" , drawing on RFC 2795[^] as inspiriation for what the example service(s) did :-D. -- Ian Darling

Marc Clifton has written an excellent guide[^]. cheers, Chris Maunder

.. because in austria (and in germany) the sign for the decimal point is "," (in most other countries "."). the problem is that it depends on the locale setting. now we really had some strange effects with the locale's setting (connectiong to our database changed these settings, due to an error in a lib). so we wrote something like: (without looking into the code)

string s = any_number;
s.change_all_dots_to_commas();
d1 = atof (s);
s.change_all_commas_to_dots();
d2 = atof (s);
if (any_number > 0)
  return max (d1,d2)
else
  return min (d1,d2)

hope you get the point. and it makes sense... cause now all our programs work perfectly.
