## Properties (systemwide)

### The property file, valid for all users

This property file is called "`.nc.properties`" and it is stored in a folder called "`data`" under the installation folder. The path is dependent on your input during the installation. The systemwide property file will be updated, if you update exchange rates. You can add additional formats which are shown by the "Format" dialog.

Example:

> `#/* properties updated */` `#Sat May 10 10:43:21 CEST 2003` `rates_logic=false` `rates_date=Monday, May 5, 2003 at 9am` `rates_preferred=pacific.commerce.ubc.ca.filter` `format_0=$SVALUE \= $TVALUE` `format_1=$SVALUE [$SUNIT] \= $TVALUE [$TUNIT]` `format_2=$SVALUE [$SFLAG; $SUNIT] \= $TVALUE [$TFLAG; $TUNIT]` `format_3=$SVALUE\t$TVALUE` `format_4=$SVALUE\t$SUNIT\t$TVALUE\t$TUNIT` `format_5=$SVALUE\t$SFLAG\t$SUNIT\t$TVALUE\t$TFLAG\t$TUNIT` `format_6=$SVALUE;$SUNIT;$TVALUE;$TUNIT` `format_7=<tr><td>$SVALUE</td><td>$SUNIT</td><td>$TVALUE</td><td>$TUNIT</td></tr>`
