Excel Import Converts Decimal Point to Comma

Hi all, I uploaded an Excel file containing some rows formatted with two decimal places. In my Excel file, the decimal separator is a dot, but the output shows a comma instead. My question is, what do I need to do?

The Excel data uses a period as the decimal separator.

Open file excel

Read Worksheet excel

Output from the Excel file upload during debugging

Yes, Because it always return as text value thats why you got the , instead of dot. You need to convert it like below.

I've already converted the text to decimal, but the debug result is empty.
