Number Format constants:

Flag Style
0 general
1 decimal
2 decimal with commas
3 scientific
4 fractional
5 dimension
6 angle
For angle, the accuracy displays the angle format as in the pull-down menu list, whereby the choices 1 to 3 are degrees, the rest decimal.
7 date
For date, the accuracy displays the date format as in the pull-down menu.
Warning: the returned flags don't correspond to the pull-down indexes. See list below. The format depends on the system settings.
Example: flag 33 shows as dd/mm/yy in the pull-down menu, but resolves as dd.mm.yy in my German system.
Example: all (AM/PM) flags don't resolve in the German system and stay as 24h.
