I would replace the ',' with something else such as a '#' first then
replace the decimal with the ',' then replace the '#' with a decimal '.'
If you do the ',' with a '.' first then all of them will be '.' and you
wont know which ones to change.

Don't know, but you can replace the , to . within the ascii-file (sed,
awk, ...).
