csv - Why does Excel parse numbers with more than two decimal places as whole numbers? -

-

excel uses windows regional settings list separator , decimal separator csv files. attempting localize csv reports in our application french , german users. using semi-colons csv delimiter , commas decimal separators french , german versions of each csv.

i've set local windows regional settings use semi colons , commas decimal separators. when open following test file in excel, excel parses numbers 2 or less decimal characters correctly ... based on regional settings. however, numbers 3 or more decimal places parsed whole numbers. so, string 12,3000 parsed 123 000 (one hundred twenty 3 thousand).

test.csv:

"decimal separator";"in quotes";"number" "period";"false";4.283333 "period";"true";"4.283333" "period";"false";0.283333 "period";"true";"0.283333" "comma";"false";4,283333 "comma";"true";"4,283333" "comma";"false";0,283333 "comma";"true";"0,283333" "period";"false";4.333 "period";"true";"4.333" "period";"false";0.333 "period";"true";"0.333" "comma";"false";4,333 "comma";"true";"4,333" "comma";"false";0,333 "comma";"true";"0,333" "period";"false";4.28 "period";"true";"4.28" "period";"false";0.28 "period";"true";"0.28" "comma";"false";4,28 "comma";"true";"4,28" "comma";"false";0,28 "comma";"true";"0,28" "period";"false";4.4 "period";"true";"4.4" "period";"false";0.4 "period";"true";"0.4" "comma";"false";4,4 "comma";"true";"4,4" "comma";"false";0,4 "comma";"true";"0,4" "period";"false";4 "period";"true";"4" "period";"false";0 "period";"true";"0" "comma";"false";4 "comma";"true";"4" "comma";"false";0 "comma";"true";"0" "period";"false";45623455454.283333 "period";"true";"45623455454.283333" "period";"false";45623455450.283333 "period";"true";"45623455450.283333" "comma";"false";45623455454,283333 "comma";"true";"45623455454,283333" "comma";"false";45623455450,283333 "comma";"true";"45623455450,283333" "period";"false";45623455454.28 "period";"true";"45623455454.28" "period";"false";45623455450.28 "period";"true";"45623455450.28" "comma";"false";45623455454,28 "comma";"true";"45623455454,28" "comma";"false";45623455450,28 "comma";"true";"45623455450,28"

does have insight on this

you might have issue if regional settings set use comma "digit grouping symbol". french uses space character digit grouping , germany uses period.

windows --> control panel --> region , language --> numbers --> additional settings --> digit grouping symbol --> set use space character

asp.net - 'System.Web.HttpContext' does not contain a definition for 'GetOwinContext' Mystery -

i realize question might seem trivial some, it's these types of things find myself fighting quite bit , want make sense of despite seeming losing battle in .net (for me anyway). so, if following: using system.web; ... applicationuser user = system.web.httpcontext.getowincontext().getusermanager<applicationusermanager>().findbyid(system.web.httpcontext.user.identity.getuserid()); that produces error in title , red getowincontext() , error cannot resolve symbol 'getowincontext()' however, if following (remove system.web in front of httpcontext ), works expected (or @ least no errors): using system.web; ... applicationuser user = httpcontext.getowincontext().getusermanager<applicationusermanager>().findbyid(system.web.httpcontext.user.identity.getuserid()); however, if (same line that's working using system.web commented out): //using system.web; ... applicationuser user = httpcontext.getowincontext().getusermana...

mercurial graft feature, can it copy? -

-
there new feature in mercurial 3, called 'graft' (graft local). job of moving change-set different branch. is there way "copy" change-set branch? i interested in in moving stuff qa branch production branch, still need code reside in qa. want copy. found , have tried few things, maybe it'll become clear more tinkering , reading... does have better way of 'cherry picking' change-sets move cross branch (or trunk)??? graft copies changesets, doesn't move them. hg graft (emphasis mine): this command uses mercurial's merge logic copy individual changes other branches without merging branches in history graph. known 'backporting' or 'cherry-picking' . default, graft copy user, date, , description source changesets.
