As you can see from the attachment I'm really good at landing the Cessna, with a high score of 9579 
Sadly, the actual landing scores recorded in the .dat file are much smaller - 66.59, 95.79, 66.7, 65.09 and 95.7. I'm in Denmark, and like many other European countries we use "," for the decimal separator (the "." is the thousands separator). The career analyzer apparently tries to interpret the numbers in the .dat file according to the international settings in XP and skips the "." (the traditional log book and the full pilot log book displays the numbers correctly using the "," decimal separator).
As a workaround I tried changing the international settings in the XP control panel to US English. In that mode the correct values are shown in the career analyzer using the "." decimal separator (the decimal separator also changes to "." in the traditional log book). However, it has some undesirable effects elsewhere on my system, so I can't just leave it at that setting.
Not a big deal, but if you have a solution or if you can fix it in a future release I'd appreciate it.
Tom

| Tom: Thanks for taking the time to produce such a detailed post - it's invaluable to us in making this product the best it can be. We are looking at this phenomenon - we certainly already have logic in the program which has to deal with the difference between representations of decimals in different parts of the world, but it appears that this is not helping in the case of the Career Analyzer, in some cases.  We will keep you posted on any workaround we find and in the meantime press on to sort it out by the next version!  Oh - nice landing scores - see you on the scores tables!
