Convert a text field to a decimal number field in power bi

262 Views Asked by At

I want to convert a column that appears to me as text that contains numbers with a decimal point to a field that will be a normal number so that I can sum up the column.

Columns that appeared to me as text and numbers were written in them I was able to convert to decimal numbers, but the column that is defined as a text type and contains numbers with a decimal point does not allow to convert to a decimal number.
