Hi joshua1990 ,

 

Your problem is not clear to me. Can you explain more please? If you want to chnage something in your file, you can chnage it independently.

 

Thanks,

thanks for your help!

I have a csv file that has the following structure

Name,Name,Name,55555.00524, 55.059652,Name, 987654.45698

As you can see there is a comma (",") as separator and the dot (".") for decimal numbers.

So, I am referencing to this file and load it into Power Query and then I have the columns based on the comma separator.

Since we are an EU company we are working with a comma for decimal numbers.

I need to change all numbers by replacing the dot by a comma.

 

Is there any way to do this without replacing values?

Any area coding type or so?
