| System Parameters |
|
| Description | Assigns decimal point symbol / character for use in formatted numeric data. Use the ASCII value of your character. For WindX environments, this parameter must be set on both the client and the server. |
| Default | 'DP'=46 or 'DP'=ASC("."), the decimal point. |
| *Note* | The 'DP' setting is used if I/O is formatted in INPUT, OBTAIN, PRINT and the STR( ) function (and ignored for unformatted I/O). It is always ignored by the NUM( ) function and when using WRITE, READ, FIND or EXTRACT directives in converting numeric data. |
