You need to override them in your application, by overriding of course I
dont mean changing the current values in windows, but ignoring them and use
your own.

All those regional settings are declared as variables in the unit SysUtils.
You can give a look at them and override the ones you need

In your case, if you're not dealing with dates, you need to override only
the DecimalSeparator and ThousandSeparator, maybe CurrencyDecimals too.

Good luck
