[quote="horacio":dm47j2gh]Thanks Rao for the answer, what I wanted to expose is that this function alters those strings that contain numbers, not just those that are numeric.

It is not correct.
function FWNumFormat() only stores programmer's options. This function does not do any formatting by itself.
Function NUMPICT( ) returns a numeric picture clause based on settings of FWNumFormat().
XBrowse uses NumPict() to decide the default picture clause of a column, whose datatype is 'N'.
XBrowse decides the datatype of a column on the basis of field type.
If your character fields are affected, I am sure there must be some issue with your source code, but FWNumFormat creating a problem can be ruled out.
We can help if you can produce any self contained sample using any dbf in the \fwh\samples folder.
