You'll have to roll out your own formatter, for example round down the number to cut into main & fractional part, then merge back with separators you need. Some dividing by 1000 until & adding comma till there's nothing to divide? Maybe you'll find some formatting functions or ideas at code.google.com/archive/p/apex-lang although the project is abandoned since 2012 and many functions it "patches" are now in core String library. | |

Is there a way of formatting a Decimal to an arbitrary locale (or format) in Apex? e.g. Decimal decimalValue = 10000.00; String stringValue = decimalValue.format('###,###,##0.00'); | |
