Format currency - include commas to separate per 1000 multiples?

I'm using F to format currency (UK sterling) to 2 decimal places. Is it
possible to include commas to separate 1000 multiples - e.g. 5,000,000

Put something like this in the Layout / Properties / Format box (I'm
using the US Dollar sign - you would put the UK pound sign in the
appropriate place instead):
$#,##0.00;($#,##0.00);Zero
If the value were 10000 you would see: $10,000.00
If the value were .5 you would see: $0.50
If the value were -500.05 you would see: ($500.05)
If the value were 0 you would see: Zero
