Well, we haven't heard of this problem before, and are not likely to do a release to fix a problem that shows up only under Windows 98.

Now, if someone reports the problem under Windows XP, then we will look into what changes Windows is making in the regional settings that the Designer might be unhappy with.

(We have had an issue with Crystal Reports and South African Rands, but never one between Canadian and US settings, and not in the specification designer.)
