    Regional Settings

    Is there a way to determine what the regional settings are for a computer in Excel (i.e. English, German)? Also, is there a way to determine what the decimal symbol is (. or ,)?

    LAF,

    This is a Windows question, not an Excel question. Try Start - Control
    panel (may vary slightly depending on your version of Windows) - Regional
    Settings.

    MsgBox Application.DecimalSeparator

    will work in code -- although, I don't recall if it's always been available.
    (It is in xl2002+.)
