Ie: 1,26,4564 would be returned as 1,264,564 ;Edited to improve regex to allow for decimals Last edited by FroggieDaFrog; 06/02/11 03:26 PM. I am SReject My Stuff

I guess one way to do it would be: 1) to find the decimal place(if not one, tack one on) 2) loop backwards 3 positions 3) add comma 4) continue until no nummbers are left I am SReject My Stuff
