- Any currency defined by ISO 4217 can be shown by using the appropriate three-letter currency code. For example, if Currency-JPY (for Japanese Yen) is entered into the Number Format setting, the entered value of 12 will be displayed as ¥12.
Important: in edit mode you must use a period (.) as the decimal, even if the currency defined uses a comma (,).
