# Information

You can set the locale used for controlling the formatting numbers, dates and currencies in LibreOffice Basic in LibreOffice - Preferences Tools - Options
- Language Settings - Languages. In Basic format codes, the decimal point (.) is always used as placeholder for the decimal separator defined in your locale and will be replaced by the corresponding character.

The same applies to the locale settings for date, time and currency formats. The Basic format code will be interpreted and displayed according to your locale setting.

The colour values of the 16 basic colours are as follows:

Colour Value | Colour Name
0 | Black
128 | Blue
32768 | Green
32896 | Cyan
8388608 | Red
8388736 | Magenta
8421376 | Yellow
8421504 | White
12632256 | Grey
255 | Light blue
65280 | Light green
65535 | Light cyan
16711680 | Light red
16711935 | Light magenta
16776960 | Light yellow
16777215 | Transparent white
