- From the Taskbar, click Start -> Settings -> Control Panel
- In Control Panel, double-click Regional Options or Regional Settings
- Click the General property page. Check the language that your computer is using
- Click the Number property sheet. Examine how the numbers are configured for your computer. Here is an example:

- Click the Currency property sheet. Check how the money value is set to display in your computer.
- Click the Date property page. Check how dates are set to display in your computer:

- Click the Time property sheet. Review how the numbers are set to display in your computer.
- When you have finished examining the property sheets, click Cancel (unless you want to save or apply the changes you might have made, in which case you would click OK).
- replace all commas with semi-colons. Example: instead of "=IF(5>6, 4.2, 6.1)" write "=IF(5>6; 4.2; 6.1)"
- replace all periods with commas. Example: instead of "=IF(5>6; 4.2; 6.1)" write "=IF(5>6; 4,2; 6,1)"

When we list trigger examples on this web site we assume that a user has specific regional settings: either "English (United States)" or "English (United Kingdom)". The main difference of these settings from others is the decimal separator character. It is a period - ".". In reality many European and other countries use comma as a decimal separator - ",".
Thus if you live in Germany the formulas given in the trigger examples may not work on your computer. You will have to manually adjust them to your local settings using a simple guide below.
Step 1. Checking the Computer's Regional Settings
Step 2. Adjusting your formulas
We will leave out the fact that Excel translates the names of the functions in the local language. We assume that you are able to make the translation.
If you have comma as a decimal separator, apply the following changes to the formulas you'll find on our web site:
