SigmaXL compatibility with international decimal systems

SigmaXL is compatible with international decimal systems. However, in some circumstances, the decimal type may revert back to the English point-type decimal in SigmaXL dialog boxes.

The symptoms of this issue are as follows:

  1. Your results appear incomplete.

  2. You are presented with varying error messages.

  3. SigmaXL/Excel crashes after running affected tools.

Note

This does not affect systems which use the North American English decimal system.

If the symptoms above occur, verify the following:

  1. Check the dialog box for any incorrect decimals in the Confidence Intervals, Confidence Levels, Thresholds, and/or Upper/Lower Sigma Levels fields:



  2. If a point is used instead of a comma, attempt to type in the proper value and click OK >>:



  3. If the tool you are attempting to run has an Options button, ensure the options are also verified:


If changing the decimal does not resolve the issue, contact SigmaXL support.
