Number presentation with comma (digit grouping) delimiters

[Confuzzled 1]

Is there a UDF to convert numerics into a readable format so that commas can be shown?

Example: Input is 123456.789 when formatted becomes 123,456.789

If not, can we add a new flag 'c' to the inbuilt StringFormat function to facilitate adding these?

(Issue: Internationalisation/Locale: Some countries use the decimal point for their digit grouping delimiter, so this may have to be extracted from the locale settings in Windows to decide)

If not, is there a need for an UDF to do this? Is it more appropriate to put it on the Math, Misc, or String UDFs or should I roll my own?

Comment: I found the examples and explanations in the StringFormat help page needed a bit of head scratching. Maybe a fuller example with more parts would be helpful.

Func _komma( $num )
    $number = StringReplace( $num , "." , "," )
    Return $number
EndFunc

This should it be for komma replace
