Hi,
I've a birt template where I'm setting the locale in "beforeFactory". The report has dates and decimals values to be displayed. If I check the report in the report viewer or export it to PDF the locale is applied to all the elements of the report. But, when the report is exported to excel, locale is just applied to the date.
I've attached an image, where I've highlighted the problem. I've used "nl_NL" as the locale while generating the report.
<method name="beforeFactory"><![CDATA[reportContext.getDesignHandle().setStringProperty("locale","nl_NL");]]></method>
As we can see in the image attached, the dates are fine but, the decimals are displayed in "en_GB" locale format. I observed that excel picks up the system locale setting for the decimals displayed. If I change my machine locale to nl_NL, then I see it fixed in the excel.
Any suggestions to resolve this issue are highly appreciated?
Regards,
Sushma
