+        legacy currency formats no special attribution is converted, only the
+        default currency format of the locale is chosen, and that new fixed
+        currency codes are of course not converted to other currencies. The
+        method may also be used as a general method taking, converting and
+        inserting almost arbitrary format codes. To insert or use, for example,
+        the default currency format code matching the current locale, the

+        @return
+            The index key of the resulting number format. If the format code
+            was empty, could not be converted or has errors, the eLnge locale's
+            standard number format is chosen instead. The index key is
+            guaranteed to represent some valid number format. If
+            rNewInserted==false and rCheckPos>0 the format code has errors
