Trying to use IntToStr() to convert an integer into an AnsiString.
Although the ThousandSeparator is set to',' the generated string does not
contain it.
For example, the number 44444 is converted to: "44444" while we wish it to
be converted to: "44,444".

What am I doing wrong? Should another function be used?

Thanks, Ronit.

For this purpose I use the Format function, like this :

String s = Format ("%.0n",ARRAYOFCONST(((float)num)));

where num is the number to be print in the string. This print the correct 
decimal and thousand separators, it work for me, but I've not tested with 
ThousandSeparator is set to',' ... pheraps I think can work ... try it.

Hope this can help.

Steve
