1. Formatting numbers/money according to Locale in Win32?
Does anyone know how to format numbers/money in Win32 according to the locale?
In linux, you simply use strfmon. I have localization complete in Linux. Just
need the number/money formatting in Windows.
I'm looking for a C api call. I see GetCurrencyFormat() but thus far have been
unable to find where it's actually defined. All uses come back with a function id
of -1.

Ah. GetCurrencyFormatA... In the docs I was looking at it is references
GetCurrencyFormat. Great. I found GetNumberFormat as well. So, now date/time,
number and currency formatting are all locales based on the OS locale data!
