My TOPAZ\TNG is showing the wrong currency symbol

Postby Belinda Frick » Fri Nov 12, 2010 5:55 pm

This setting needs to be changed in Windows:

TOPAZ on XP:

    [START -> CONTROL PANEL -> REGIONAL AND LANGUAGE OPTIONS],
    Regional Options Tab, select your country,
    example ENGLISH (South-Africa).
ALSO SEE: Incorrect currency.

TNG

    TNG uses the currency that the TNG server is set to in Windows.
    Ensure that this is setup correct. For South-Africa the
    currency is Rand and the Regional Settings must be set to
    English South-Africa. This must be configured on the TNG server.

    Once you made the changes, you need to re-boot the PC that the
    TNG server is installed on.

    Please note that the PC from where you access TNG does not need
    to have this currency setting, unless it is the TNG server.

    PLEASE NOTE: On the regional settings window, you must click on the
    "Advanced" tab and tick the box that states "Apply all settings to
    the current user account and to the default user profile".

    This must be done, as TNG does not run as the same user you are
    logged in, but as the user SYSTEM.

TNG on XP/2003 Server

    START -> CONTROL PANEL -> REGIONAL AND LANGUAGE OPTIONS,
    Regional Options Tab, select your country,
    example ENGLISH (South-Africa).
    Now click on Advance -> Default user account setting
    Select\tick -> Apply all settings to the current user account
    and to the default user profile.
    Please restart the PC for the changes to take effect.

TNG on Vista:


    START -> CONTROL PANEL -> REGIONAL AND LANGUAGE OPTIONS:
    'Formats' tab: Select ENGLISH(SOUTH-AFRICA)
    'Formats' - 'Customize this format' - 'Currency' tab: Currency symbol - R
    'Location' tab: Select SOUTH-AFRICA.

    If you run Vista Starter addition and you have 'Administrative' tab, follow Windows 7 settings as listed below.

TNG on Windows 7:

    START -> CONTROL PANEL -> REGIONAL AND LANGUAGE OPTIONS:
    'Formats' tab: Select ENGLISH(SOUTH-AFRICA).
    'Location' tab: Select SOUTH-AFRICA.
    'Administrative' tab: click on 'Copy Settings'
    "Copy your current setting to:" enable both options:
    1. Welcome screen and system accounts,
    2. New user accounts

    Click OK/Apply to save these settings.

    Stop and start the TNG service for the changes to be detected.
