Multiple decimal systems and SigmaXL

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.
