I have a data source with spaces instead of commas as the thousands separator. I have tried the following to no avail:
Put |Space| in the thousands separator field in the amount column of the data source
Use the substitution settings to find/replace the space with either nothing or a comma
Use a complex expression to manipulate the amount
Anybody got any ideas to try to run into this before?
