For example, on Windows 2000 follow the steps below:
- Open the Control Panel:
Start->Settings->Control Panel
- Double-Click on the icon "Regional Options"
- Select the tab "Number"
- Change the "Decimal SYmbol" from "," to "."
On Windows XP:
- Choose the icon "Regional and Language Options" located in the Control Panel
- In the tab "Regional Options", click on the button "Customize.."
- Change the "Decimal SYmbol" from "," to "."
