Hi Everybody,
I am currently working on dataports and have an issue with different regional settings. Is it possible to check out the regional settings from Navision so as to create an IF statement accordingly?

I don't know direct methods of finding regional settings, but sometimes when I need to know how to parse date and decimals I'm using the following trick:
DateTxt := Format(23451231D);
DecimalTxt := format(5432.10);
Then I'm searching for '2345' string in DateTxt to learn whether the default system formatting is 2345/12/31 or 31/12/2345. Similar with DecimalTxt - 2nd character is telling me what is character is used as thousands separator, and if it is '4' then I know there is no thousands separator used. 6th (or5th) character of DecimalTxt is telling me me what is used as decimal separator...
