REGIONAL CHARACTERS for DECIMALS
BACKGROUND
There is the possibility that foreign computers may use characters other than dots/periods for decimals in floating point numbers. For example commas are used by the French and Polish rather than the dot/period symbol.

RESOLUTION
Now Benderlink can work with any character that is used in the Regional and Languages setup of Windows.
WINDOWS SETUP

 |
Then select the new decimal character.
