Answer 1

Use the numberformatter.

<mx:NumberFormatter id="myFormatter"
    decimalSeparatorFrom="."
    decimalSeparatorTo="."
    precision="-1"
    rounding="none"
    thousandsSeparatorFrom=","
    thousandsSeparatorTo=","
    useNegativeSign="true"
    useThousandsSeparator="true"/>

actionscript code

x = myFormatter.format(x);
