How can I change "." to "," so e.g. 1.000 = 1,000 in the same colu

Hi I need to convert a large spreadsheet with volumes of no.s set out in the
European format which separate 000s with a dot "." to the Uk format which
separates this with commas e,g. 1,000. I need to do this in the same
column/cells, not as a formula, i.e. not {sum=cell*1000}, and I've tried the
find and replace function which doesn't work as it changes e.g. 10.000 to 10

Does anyone know how to do this?

If your value is in cell j7 is 1.000, type the following formula

=VALUE(CONCATENATE(J7,",","000"))
