Default editing currency lists in Excel

I have imported a series of prices in a column in Excel. These columns use
the . seperator instead of the , seperator. How can I change the . in a
series of cells to a , ?

Simpy select the column, search for period/dot (.) and replace with nothing
(you should get the comma with formatting) or comma (,).

If your data also has commas in place of the decimal point then first change
that to something like $ or ^, then change period/dot to comma and finally
$/^ to period/dot
