chart and localization

I'm not able to define the chart y-axis maximum and minimun to be fixed
0,2 and -0,2. I have defined the report language as finnish and in
editor the everything works fine but after deploying and in preview mode
reporting services changes the limits to -15 and 15. I suppose the
problem is the the ',' decimal separator. I have set IE and asp.net
local to finnish and the OS (XP PRO EN) default locals to the use
finnish number formats. All other formattings in the report are just
fine, so the only problem is the chart. Does anyone know how to fix this
problem?I know this might be a stupid question but have you tried setting it to
0.2 instead of 0,2?
I had a few issues with number formatting in 2000 too, when trying to
use Norwegian formats. I ended up using US/UK numbers then applying
format codes for displaying.
There are also significant issues in 2005 data and preview tab with
European date formats (dd/mm/yyyy). It works fine when deployed.
The point I am aiming at is that the preview tab is not that good an
indicator of how the report may behave when deployed, primarily because
there are a number of issues when using non-US locales.

The behavior is quite strange that way as well.
I'd like to have the scale between 0.2 and -0.2. If I set these values
the scale end up to be 0.2 and -1.0. So the negative side somehow fails.
If I set range from 0,2 to -0,2 I'll get a range from 2 to -2 so
probably the '.' is anyway the corrent decimal separator.
Does anyone have idea why I'm not able to set the negative decimal value
to minimun?
