*** 3) Bug Reports ***

Problem: For users outside USA:
===============================
For those countries using comma "," to represent a decimal point,
instead of a period "." (i.e., "2,345" instead of "2.345"), 
Advantix Calculator will display conversion error message and can not
perform calculation correctly.    

Solution:
=========
To overcome this problem, the user needs to configure the system number 
format to using "." as decimal point. The following steps outline how to:
1) Using the window control panel, run the program "Regional Settings"
2) Go to the "Number" tab page, change the "Decimal Symbol" from "," to "."
3) Click on "Apply" button.

In the next version, Advantix Calculator will fix this problem.
