Yes	Yes

The mi_money_to_string() function converts the internal MONEY value that money_data contains into a monetary string. An internal MONEY value is the format that the database server uses to store a value in a MONEY column of the database.

Important: The mi_money_to_string() function replaces the mi_binary_to_money() function for internal MONEY-to-string conversion in DataBlade API modules.

The mi_money_to_string() function formats the monetary string in the monetary format of the current processing locale. For more information, see the Informix Guide to GLS Functionality.

See the descriptions of the following functions: mi_date_to_string(), mi_datetime_to_string(), mi_decimal_to_string(), mi_interval_to_string(), and mi_string_to_decimal().
