Sorry - wrong version. That should have been:

------------------

on currency_format for v
tell (((v mod 1 as text) * 100) ^ 2) ^ 0.5 + 0.5 to (v div 1 as
text) & (0.0 as text)'s character 2 & it div 1
end currency_format

currency_format for -123.4

"-123,40" / "-123.40" (* depending on local currency formatting *)

--------------------------------
I follow with interest all this solutions, and learn a lot, of all of them, but I wonder why use “(0.0 as text)'s character 2” and not simply use the dot character as in my own version?
Is there any reason that I can’t see?
currencyFormat for 4567.819
on currencyFormat for v
tell (((v mod 1 as string) * 100) ^ 2) ^ 0.5 to ((v div 1 as string) & ".") & (it div 0.5 - it div 1) as string
end currencyFormat
Thanks
