In this particular case, an NSNumberFormatter attached to your
field in Interface Builder will take care of this automatically. Read
the documentation for more details.

So NSScanner seems to be the closest to what I need. But it fails to
respond to the NSThousandsSeparator. Looking over the documentation,
there is only mention of the decimal separator. Is it possible to get
it to handle the other separators?
Basically, what I want is when the user types 1,000.50 (in en-US), I
want the value 1000.5. But I actually get 1.0 in this case.
Here is the code I'm using:
float converted_value;
NSScanner* the_scanner = [NSScanner
localizedScannerWithString:user_string];
BOOL did_find_number = [the_scanner scanFloat:&converted_value];
Thanks,
Eric
