Numeric Country Code

[Susanne Christe]

Hi all,

I know how to use System.Globaliz ation.RegionInf o, but I have problems
to get the Numeric Country Code like this here:

http://www.atmajaya.ac.id/Weblinks/KodeNegara.html

ISO-3166.

Do somebody know how to get them in C#.

Thx
Susan

Re: Numeric Country Code

MSDN documentation states that, "The culture names follow the RFC 1766
standard in the format "<languagecode2 >-<country/regioncode2>", where
<languagecode 2> is a lowercase two-letter code derived from ISO 639-1 and
<country/regioncode2> is an uppercase two-letter code derived from ISO
3166."
So use it :)

The Problem ist, the numeric Country Code must be somewhere in the
system too. If You are editing a user in ActiveDirectory , the numeric
country code is afterwards as countryCode: 840 for US in the Directory.
Where are those numbers comming from.

All this infos about country code is in letter mode, i need the numeric
attribute of a country from the system. And definitefly it is somwhere
where no one was before ;) except of MS ;)

Re: Numeric Country Code

I think that the fastest way for you will be make table of convertion for
letter and numeric attributes,

Hi Tamir, you dont need to be sorry for this.

But I am asking me, do we need to invent the wheel all the time new, if
the solution must lie hidden in the system. All the people editing
ActiveDirectory with apps, do they make every time this iso tables new?
This dont make any sense, and still worse, I dont find ANY clue on the
net, and people are fighting with this every day, and working around and
around and around ;)

Thank You very much and have a nice day. :)

thx
