This is because commas can mean two things. Here in the US, for example, if I wanted to write one thousand dollars and fifty cents, I'd have this: $1,000.50 In Europe, on the other hand, the commas and periods would be switched: $1.000,50 So, just remove the commas first assuming you're using US formatting.
