Answer 1

I know this is an old thread, but in case someone needs it, there is an easiest and most proper way to do it :

1. Right click on the Textbox of your expression
2. Select "Number" in the popup "Text Box Properties"
3. In the "Category", select "Number"
4. Tick the "Use 1000 separator
5. Click OK

To "customize" your '1000 separator':

1. Select the Textbox of your expression
2. In the Properties on the right, apply the right culture in the "Language" property. E.g. Select "fr-CH" to have 123'456 otherwise the default is 123,456 as English separator.
