How can I find out what the current measurement units (US or metric)
setting is (Control panel, regional settings, advanced).
I can get things like the decimal separator but cannot find this one

I am using vb.net 2003


Thanks

Try this:

RegionInfo region = new
RegionInfo(Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture.Name);
Console.WriteLine("IsMetric: " + region.IsMetric);
 
Thanks

Click to expand...
 
Problem is that only seems to show what the standard for a region is not
what they are currently set to. Any other ideas?
