How to insert comma (,) for every thousands

[JohnRichard]

I am trying to calculate integer then rounded for 1000. I wanted to insert comma (,) after every thousands. Like Round(8300000/1000, 0) will give me 8300. However i would like the result to be like 8,300. How will i do that. I am trying to do _StringInsert function but could not get it working.

Here is my sample script. Can someone share their expertise on this one?

Thanks...

#include<string.au3>

$a = Round(8300000/1000, 0) & " KB"

For $i = $a/1000 to $a

_StringInsert($a, ",", $i)
Msgbox (0, "", $a)
Next

I think it can be done using StringFormat or even StringRegExpReplace.

In 3.3.2 "the function _StringAddThousandsSep() has been removed. There are too many opinions on what this function should do and too many revisions of this function have been made."

A replacement for _StringAddThousandsSep has been written. Please check this link.

This link has the thousand comma separator added using StringRegExpReplace().

Another version which uses localization from the registry is available here.
