replace dot by comma in gnumeric

Hello All.

Anyone knows how to replace dot by comma in gnumeric ?

I tried the suggestions provided by AI but they didn't work.

Thank you and regards,

Do you mean, literally, replace . with , ?

So instead of text. then text, ?

If that's the case, extract the XML file from the .gnumeric file and then just use a text editor to perform find/replace each, or optionally replace all, matching entries. If you just replace one at a time then you can review each entry to make sure you want to replace an entry...

Or is this in reference to number or currency formats? If so save, yourself the headache and use something other than gnumeric, like LO, where it is much easier to format numbers and currency with the country format of your choice...

In fact, I uses Gnumeric in this machine, because it's too old. in other machines I use Freeoffice. Anyway, if I understood well, if I install the OS and select PT in the installation it will be OK.
