Use Num function

Num(fieldname) as fieldname

Thanks!

Cant use num function, because this is a text field in database.

I would try  to load this field with: text(Field) within a Preceding Load. If this don't work I would look for a different database-driver.

May be replace() will work

REPLACE(TextString,'.','') AS TextString
