Applies to TestComplete 15.47, last modified on January 20, 2023
This property is obsolete. See the Remarks section below.

Description

Use the Utilities.NegCurrFormat property to specify the format string used to convert negative currency values to strings. This format is used, for example, by the Format and FormatCurr methods as the currency format.

Declaration

Utilities.NegCurrFormat

Read-Write Property Integer

Applies To

The property is applied to the following object:

Property Value

The variable can store one of the following values:

Value Format Value Format
0 ($1) 8 -1 $
1 -$1 9 -$ 1
2 $-1 10 1 $-
3 $1- 11 $ 1-
4 (1$) 12 $ -1
5 -1$ 13 1- $
6 1-$ 14 ($ 1)
7 1$- 15 (1 $)

By default, NegCurrFormat holds the value specified by Regional Settings in the Windows Control Panel. To restore this value, call the GetFormatSettings method.

Remarks

Utilities.NegCurrFormat is obsolete and is supported for backward compatibility only. To get or set the format of negative currency values, use the aqEnvironment.GetLocaleInfo and aqEnvironment.SetLocaleInfo functions with LOCALE_INEGCURR as the second parameter.

JavaScript, JScript

var neg_curr_format = aqEnvironment.GetLocaleInfo(LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT, LOCALE_INEGCURR);
Log.Message(neg_curr_format);

Python

neg_curr_format = aqEnvironment.GetLocaleInfo(LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT, LOCALE_INEGCURR)
Log.Message(neg_curr_format)

VBScript

neg_curr_format = aqEnvironment.GetLocaleInfo(LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT, LOCALE_INEGCURR)
Log.Message neg_curr_format

DelphiScript

neg_curr_format := aqEnvironment.GetLocaleInfo(LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT, LOCALE_INEGCURR);
Log.Message(neg_curr_format);

C++Script, C#Script

var neg_curr_format = aqEnvironment["GetLocaleInfo"](LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT, LOCALE_INEGCURR);
Log["Message"](neg_curr_format);

Or, if you want to convert currency values using locale settings, use the methods and properties of the aqConvert object. They use locale-specific date formats when parsing values.
