Hi, I want to format a float number to currency. To do this, I use the
Format function using the %m format, as this:

 Format('%m', [123.25]);

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 and my regional settings at configured to
display "$ 1234.25", but I'm getting "123.25$", why is the money symbol at the right side, instead of using the regional setting?.

Did you use the CLocale unit ?

No, but after you mentioned I included it in my "uses". The result was a number 
without the money symbol.

That probably means the clocale does not know how to handle the currency symbol 
?
