Have some users in Germany where they set their Regional Options to Germany. This impacts numeric values. For instance .001 (US) = ,001 Germany. In short, Germany uses , where we in the US use .
Is there an API call or some other functionality that I can use with VB to get a machines Regional Options setting?

From memory I would advise you to have a look at the GetLocaleInfo API call, that should help you out.

Hope this helps
