If you do the formatting - inserting thousand separators - on the server
(udf or sp), and populate with it data aware controls, how can you edit
such values ? (since numbers with thousand separator are not accepted
by sql). You need to convert it from users-preferred form (with separators)
back to sql-standard form (without separators) on the client anyway. Or not ?
