Hi
I am having below column called "Amount" which is in Text type
I am trying to convert this column in decimal number in Power Query and getting below values. It replaces the decimal value
Again I tried to convert into fixed decimal
Here the decimal points are not coming correctly. Can you please advise why this is happening? My data comes from SQL server
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @bourne2000
Right click in the column header and try using Change Type -> Using Locale
Then select Decimal Number and the locale of the origin of the data

@bourne2000 , seem like because of a regional setting comma, is a decimal seprarator.
Not the full stop/dot (.)
So replace . with , first and then try to convert
Hi @bourne2000
How are you doing the conversion? By clicking on the ABC icon in the column header and choosing Decimal Number?
If you do this then you should get a step with the code
= Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Amount", type number}})
Are you seeing this?
Can you share your data file?
