1) What do you mean by "display a value"? Numeric values are not strings, or is the number already a string and you want to put commas in it?Quote:

3) Related to 2), what if the locale doesn't use commas in numbers? For example, many European countries do not use comma for separating millions, thousands, etc. They use the "." character. That's why it doesn't make sense saving formatted number to a database.

If you save it to a numeric type field in a database, you don't want punctuation.
If you want commas and periods, as far as I know, you need to insert them yourself.
