I beg your pardon for asking this. But after googling to some extent I couldn't find much and I am also in bit of hurry.

I want to know how to change thousand separator and decimal separator in Excel. I found that in MS Excel 2003 you can do this by changing the settings in Tools->Options->Internationalization tab.

But I just want to confirm that if this is some setting that is be done only on the excel tool and not on the worksheet itself or we can do this international setting on the spreadsheet also. And if it is possible in Excel how can we do it through from Spreadsheet::WriteExcel?

Thanks very much in advance for the help!!

Thanks,
Ganesh
