+
+## Description
+
+When using the RadCalculatorPicker on a device without a numeric keypad, the decimal key does not work as expected. This article demonstrates how to make RadCalculatorPicker recognize the period or comma key as a decimal separator. 
+
+## Solution
+
+To make RadCalculatorPicker recognize the period (.) or comma (,) key as the decimal separator, subscribe to the `KeyDown` event and execute the `RadCalculatorCommands.UpdateInput` command.
+
+#### __[C#]__
+{{region kb-calculator-recognize-period-comma-decimal-0}}
+	private void RadCalculatorPicker_KeyDown(object sender, System.Windows.Input.KeyEventArgs e)
+	{
+		if (e.Key == System.Windows.Input.Key.OemPeriod)
+		{
+			RadCalculatorCommands.UpdateInput.Execute(CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.NumberFormat.NumberDecimalSeparator);
+		}
+	}
