#$%&! I forgot all about that rather common behavior. Thanks for finding .GlobalPreferences.
I did some experimenting with decimal separators earlier today. I found that using variations on a theme of
set decSep to (character 2 of (3/2 as text))
works very well and avoids wasting time & code digging into a file.
(Then I noticed that there is also a decimal separator for currency. How does my Mac know the difference?)
