I have been experimenting with XMLPorts is v4. I have found a problem that I cannot see a simple solution to. I have to export some decimal data that must conform to the type xsd:double, that is no thousand separator is allowed. There doesn’t seem to be a way to stop Navison exporting data with a thousands separator. I know that there are work arounds that I can use, I just wondered if I had missed a property setting somewhere.

Hi David, set the “Format/Evaluate” Property of the XMLPort to “XML Format/Evaluate”. That should solve your problem. regards Daniel
