APEX Data Load Number Format

I am relatively new to APEX and at the moment i am trying a few things to become better with it.



Now i have some problems with the Data Upload Wizzard from APEX. I created a table which has a NUMBER column in it. Now i try to upload some data to it via the data upload wizzard.



My Problem ist that if i upload a number with a comma (,) as the decimal seperator, like "12000,00", the "ORA-01722: invalid number" error pops up.



I tried to alter the "Globalization" settings in the "File Details"-Tab to:

Group Separator = .

Decimal Character = ,



However if i upload a file with different formats like,



12000.00;

12000,00;

12,000.12;

12.000,13;



only the number 12000.00 is getting inserted.



It seems like APEX totaly ignores the globalization settings. Is there a way i can upload numbers with a comma (,) as decimal seperator. Do i have to set a specific format in the format column? So far i tried "999990,99" and "999G990D99" as format masks but non of them seem to work.



Thanks for your input in advance.
