Thousands separator

Hi!

I want to use thousands separator in the numbers. For example, write 10123456.789012, and show 10,123,456.789012

I tried to use numprint package, but it show thousand separator after decimal point. eg. 10,123,456.789,012

Do you know any package???

Thanks!

Re: PicTex y babel

I'm going to try you advice...

I contacted a person via e-mail and he told that babel changes some characters.

The problem became solved using \shorthandoff{<>} and \shorthandon{<>} before and after each PicTex graphic.

Thank you so much
