Currency_GetNegativeSymbol()

Examples


The Currency_GetNegativeSymbol() function returns the string that is used as the negative symbol when the specified multiformat value is applied to a currency field.

Syntax

Currency_GetNegativeSymbol(multiformat_value)

Parameters

multiformat_value An integer value that was assigned to the currency format you are inquiring about.

Return value

String. If parentheses are used to denote negative values when the specified multiformat value is applied to a currency field, this function will not return parentheses. It will return the string defined as a negative symbol using the Currency_SetNegativeSymbol() function. If one wasn’t defined using that function, the operating system’s default negative string, most commonly a minus sign (-), will be returned.
