1338842 - Unable to localize currency format

The currency number formatting does not work at all for the culture when set as:

System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = New Globalization.CultureInfo("ES-es")

1. In Visual Studio 2005 or 2008, add a new crystal report template. No  data source needed.
2. Place a single unbound currency field anywhere on the report.
3. Right click on the field > Edit Formula. Enter 1234567.89. The template generates a report containing the value formatted for the
   US : $1,234,567.89
4. Add the following line of code in a web app VS .NET 2005 or VS .NET 2008 before running the Crystal Report:
   • System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = New  Globalization.CultureInfo("ES-es")
   • The template now generates a report containing this value: $1,234,567.89 
   • However, the value should look as: $1.234.567,89
   • This has been reproduced with Crystal Reports 10.2 and higher in Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2005 and 2008

• The currency field will format correctly if the field is set to "Use System Default Format"
