Introduced in KCML version 5.02
The CanConvert property property is used to define a KCML edit field as being a currency field. It requires the Type$ property to be set to a Numeric type (e.g. N13.4). When displaying values, the client's current locale currency settings are used (decimal and thousands separator character, and the number of decimal places to the right of the decimal).
A currency field can also be displayed in an alternative currency form (especially to support the Euro). See Alternative currency support for more information. In versions of KCML prior to 6.00 this property has a Boolean type; in 6.00 it is an enumeration, although TRUE and FALSE will still work, interpreted as Enable and Default respectively.
