Hello! I need to be able to export my tables in CSV format to use them in excel. When performing the operation the thousands separator is always a comma but in my country we use dot (.) and use the comma (,) to separate decimals. How can I do the conversion? Thank you!!

Glide format: $ 1,000  
I need: 1.000,00

> Hi guys, if i have used a glide table with a number column is there really no option to format the thousand separator with a “.” instead of “,”.? In Germany these numbers have a complete different meaning. Maybe by using the math column in a smart way? Thanks, Sabine (Already checked all format options in google sheet or airtable and imported it;-(
