hello. i take some data from an excel file.they are numeric but i take them as string.i want to round them to 3 digits after decimal point. i use: 
 my $rnd=Math::Round::Var->new (0.001);
$frsmt=@mtbf_data[3];
$rounded_percent_frsmt=$rnd->round($percent_frsmt);

in my computer, it works;but another computer it doesn't. i take "Argument "0,015233304" isn't numeric in sprintf at C:/perl2/site/lib/Math/Round/" error. when I add 0 to theese strings. the error message is gone .but still it's rounding to 0.00000 or 1.0000 or sth like that. thanks for your help.
