how to handle passing parameter for stored procedure in French culture

Question

0.00/5 (No votes)

See more:

For example, Consider below sp SPText. In US culture the parameter(12.34) behaves as a single parameter due to the decimal separator .(period).But in French culture, the same parameter behaves as two separate parameter because french considers coma as separator(12,34).

Exec SPText 12.34

We can solve this by replacing comma by dot, but it may not be feasible solution in huge application.

Is there any other way to achieve this ?

Thank you.

Does SQL consider 12,34 as a numeric value? I'm pretty certain you need to convert this to a valid numeric in your client app using internationalisation before passing it to the database.

Unicode will allow french text to be stored but a number must be stored as a number, formatting in and out is up to the client application NOT the database.

Hi Mycroft,
The money data type has been used for the parameter 12,34 and it will be storing as in the same format in french DB.
