I have the following problem, I have a number in one column formatted as 2.60 which is being converted to the format of 2,6 when the region code is changed to “German (Germany)” in Windows. I need this number to retain its original formatting, 2.60. Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated, I’ve searched all over and have come up with nothing.

Thanks!

    You can choose a specific separator in Excel (if you don’t want it to depends on Windows settings):

    In Office 2007

    • open the Excel Options window
    • select "Extended" (Erweitert in a German version)
    • at the bottom of the first group, choose "Edit options" (Optionen bearbeiten)
    • there is a checkbox to override the default decimal separator

    In Office 2003

    • go to Menu > Tools > Options
    • choose International
    • you can choose the Excel decimal separator
